History

In August 1965, a corporation called Lake Powell Enterprises was formed to purchase the radio station KPGE and launch a newspaper called the Lake Powell Chronicle, which would be freely mailed to residents of Page, Arizona. A month prior another paper called the Page News ceased. Royce Knight was named president of the new company[2][3] By 2005, News Media Corporation owned the Chronicle.[4] The company closed the paper in 2025.[5] It was then sold to and revived by O’Rourke Media Group.[6]
