The Great Falls Tribune is a daily morning newspaper printed in Helena, Montana. It is one of Montana's largest newspaper companies.

History[edit]

The first edition of the newspaper then called the Weekly Tribune was printed on May 14, 1885.

Starting on May 16, 1887, the Tribune became a daily newspaper.

On May 19, 1890, delivery switched from afternoon to morning.

The Great Falls Tribune moved to a new printing facility on 2nd Street in 1916; it remained there until 1979, when it moved to the location at 205 River Drive South. In 2022, they moved to a warehouse space at 701 River Dr S #1.

The Tribune launched a subsidiary company, River's Edge Printing in 2006; the latter printed for weekly newspapers on a Goss Community press.[1]

In July 2020, printing of the Great Falls Tribune moved to the presses of the Independent Record in Helena.[2]
