West View Media is a nonprofit 501(c)(3) community news organization founded in 2011 to combat the negative stereotypes that had long plagued the west side of Salt Lake City, give voice to a marginalized and ethnically diverse population, and increase civic participation among Westside residents. Its flagship publication, The West View, is a full-color quarterly newspaper mailed free of charge to over 22,000 homes and businesses in the Fairpark, Glendale, Rose Park, Westpointe, Jordan Meadows, and Poplar Grove neighborhoods, with an additional 2,000 copies hand-distributed to local businesses and public spaces.
