Deseret News
U.S. right-center, faith and family values orientation
Deseret News is owned by the LDS Church through its for-profit holding company, Deseret Management Corporation, and has been church-affiliated since its founding in 1850. Its editorial mission centers on faith, family, and traditional values, positioning it right of center on the U.S. political spectrum. Its coverage of the Trump administration has been largely matter-of-fact — reporting policy developments and negative polling data without strong advocacy for or against the administration.
