The Hi-Desert Star is a newspaper published and distributed in Yucca Valley, Morongo Valley, and Pioneertown, located within the southern Mojave Desert in San Bernardino County, California.
History
[edit]On April 3, 1957, the first edition of The Desert Star was published in Yucca Valley. It was sponsored by the Yucca Valley Chamber of Commerce.[1]
The paper's name was later changed after four months to the Hi-Desert Star after it was discovered that there was already a Desert Star newspaper that had been published in nearby Needles, California for the previous 40 years. Ironically, the paper was later sold to the owners of the Desert Star.[2]
In 1970, the Hi-Desert Star and Yucca Valley News were acquired by the W.J. McGiffin Newspaper Company.[3][4] In 1982, the company's name was changed to Brehm Communications, Inc.[5] In September 2022, Hi-Desert Star and nine other newspapers owned by Brehm were sold to Gold Mountain California News Media Inc.[6]
Other publications
[edit]The Hi-Desert Star also publishes:[7]
- The Desert Trail, Twentynine Palms
- Desert Entertainer
- Desert Mobile Home News
Hi-Desert Publishing's Mountain Division also publishes the Mountain News in Lake Arrowhead and the Big Bear Grizzly in Big Bear Lake.
