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...]

How is it to be a Black-Owned Business in Utah during Pandemic?

December 26, 2020 by David Frame Leave a Comment

When the Utah economy shut down in March, national conglomerates received billions of federal dollars in bailout funds, but small businesses were left out in the rain with no umbrella. At a quaint location on State Street in Orem, Texas-born Joe Hicks serves comfort food with a Southern flare.

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...]

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...]

Astonishing Discoveries about Utah Indians

Climate Change in Paleolithic America Resulted in Massive Lifestyle Changes Americans are always changing our lifestyle habits: especially in how we live and what to eat. Every year there is a new fad diet and more people make drastic changes such as living in vans or tiny homes to live the dream of a nomadic life, less attached to the “burdens of society or “working for the … [Read more...]

Bulldozing Utah Farms For Vacation Condos: Is this what progress looks like?

December 9, 2020 by Richard Markosian Leave a Comment

Why isn’t food security and the preservation of farms and fertile soil and water an issue in Utah?  Fights in Costco and grocery stores over scarce food items during Covid-19 demonstrate that food security and preservation of farms must be a greater concern of Utah political leaders. This past spring we had a small window into what happens when food insecurity and the … [Read more...]
