Star Valley Independent
(Newspaper)
The Star Valley Independent has been published weekly in Star Valley for over 120 years! The newspaper is published each Wednesday. The full print edition is available by subscription and is also available at many retail locations in Star Valley. A complete, mobile friendly e-edition is also available by subscription.
Do people still read a traditional newspaper? YES! Each week, the Star Valley Independent prints roughly 1,800 newspapers. About half of these papers are mailed subscriptions, the rest are sold on newspaper stands around the valley. We don’t print that many papers just for fun. It is expensive to print a newspaper. We continue to do it because they are still be read and purchased by the local community, ensuring that the Star Valley Independent remains a viable and effective advertising platform for your business and event.

The SVI Sports Network is the leader in high quality productions of high school sports. Video broadcasts are available to view subscription free, with no charge to the viewer, at SVInews.com, the SVI Media YouTube channel and on the SVI Sports Network Facebook page. A free broadcast on multiple platforms, coupled with a high quality production, has resulted in a large viewership to promote your event, product, service and business to both a local and regional audience.
