Title

Wyoming - Wyoming Tribune Eagle

Description

The Wyoming Tribune Eagle’s earliest predecessor dates back to The Cheyenne Leader, which was first published in 1867. The Leader was sold to Col. Edward Archibald Slack in the mid-1890s, who also owned a competing publication, Cheyenne Daily Sun in 1904. While Slack had merged The Sun and The Leader in 1893, another publication called The Wyoming Tribune started in 1894 and eventually took over The Leader in 1921, becoming the Wyoming State Tribune. Another paper called The Wyoming Eagle had been under the same publishing control with The Tribune but separate staffing until 1994. In this year, the two papers were merged into one newspaper, thus resulting in today’s The Wyoming Tribune-Eagle.


The Wyoming Tribune-Eagle has been awarded for the AAAS Science Journalism award in 2007 for the piece “Getting to the Bottom of Mysterious Elk Deaths”
