History

The company was the successor to a number of older papers. The ''Eastern Utah Telegraph'' published from 1891 to January 1895, and the ''Eastern Utah Advocate'' replaced it in February 1895. The ''Carbon County News'' began in 1907 and lasted until 1915, when it merged with the ''Advocate'' to form the ''News-Advocate''. That same year, the competing ''Sun'' began publishing; the two merged in 1932 to form the ''Sun Advocate''. Emery Telcom purchased the Sun Advocate and the Emery County Progress from Brehm Communications in October 2018. The now weekly newspaper is published and distributed to a total of 14,000 households for free in Carbon and Emery Counties under the name of ETV News.
