The Voice of Local Utah

Can you still speak your mind on Instagram?

January 15, 2021 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

Big-tech is taking aim at the voices on the right and silencing decent. They do this under the pretense that they are preventing violence and hate speech. This perhaps seems justified to many Americans. But now voices on the center and independent publishers are being silenced as well. Utah Stories' mission is to promote civil discourse and the voices on both sides of … [Read more...]

What Are Utah’s Proud Boys and Militia Members Saying Now?

January 11, 2021 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

Tim Jacobs, an African American from Maryland was visiting Utah’s Temple Square when he learned that there was going to be a Trump “Stop the Steal” rally up at Utah’s Capital building. He got a ride up the hill and was impressed with what he found. “It’s a lot freer over here.

Utah Capitol building-- The Proud Boys, local militia groups, retired veterans and angry citizens were all on hand to protest the final confirmation of Joe Biden's electoral victory.

The Alcohol Ban That was Killing Utah Bars and Restaurants is Now Lifted

December 19, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

Last week, a group of two dozen Utah bar and restaurant owners filed a lawsuit against Governor Gary Herbert and Richard Saunders, the interim executive director of the Utah Department of Health, to end the health order.  It was an “unreasonable restriction” on their businesses and one that is “causing irreparable and distinct harms” to the establishments and their … [Read more...]

Dominion voting machines designed to create an error?

December 17, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

If you now believe that the nails have finally been nailed in the coffin of the President Donald Trump presidency, and now that Joe Biden has finally gotten all of the electoral votes he needs and it is over, well, you might want to think again. A group called Allied Security Operations (ASOG) produced a report on the Dominion voting machines.  ASOG concludes, “The … [Read more...]

The Corrupted Leader Who Tainted Utah’s Medical Cannabis Program

December 16, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

Kerry Gibson was the former Weber State County Commissioner. Under his stewardship, ranchers that Utah Stories have spoken to have been losing their land and their water due to the overdevelopment of the area. But somehow Kerry Gibson became a darling of state GOP leaders. According to one rancher we spoke with, Gibson used his post to improve conditions for his own family’s … [Read more...]

Why is The Inland Port Illegal?

December 16, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

The most basic and fundamental right we have is the protection of our environment and our health. We, the citizens cannot allow corporations to work with the government to foul our air; dirty our water; cause irreparable harm and environmental damage to an area, and in the process make area residents unhealthy or sick. This right falls under the Equal Protection Clause of … [Read more...]

News Censorship: A Top Investigative Journalist Not Allowed to Speak the Truth

December 16, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

The great reporter who broke the Edward Snowden NSA classified information story Glenn Greenwald quit his job at Intercept.

The mainstream media’s claim was that everything concerning Biden’s son was “Russian disinformation”.  Big tech, social media companies … [Read more...]

Hidden Utah Journalism- The stories the mainstream media doesn’t want you to know

December 16, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

I have the utmost respect for journalists who work in local TV broadcasting, newspaper reporting, radio, and magazines. So when I knock the “mainstream media” I’m not including the vast majority of my colleagues who are professionals doing excellent work providing the news we need to know to become more engaged in our civic duties. But there are stories that are hidden, that … [Read more...]

Do We Need to Ruin Local Economy to Support “Indigenous Renewal”?

December 14, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

We don’t need to ruin the area’s local economy under the guise of a sanctimonious indigenous renewal, which will only result in providing the federal government greater powers in landlordship. There is a better alternative than locking up land under greater federal control for improving the land’s viability both economically and environmentally. A major part of this idea … [Read more...]
