The Yukon News’ solid reputation for quality writing and investigative work persists. Year after year, the News carries home awards both regionally and nationally for its excellence in journalism, photography, editorials, editorial cartoons and graphic art. High caliber young journalists are attracted to it for its rarity as an independently-owned newspaper with an owner who is hands-off in the editorial department and editors who strive for distinction. Stephen Robertson continues to run the business side of his newspaper with vision. “Our goal is to continue to improve our service to the community,” says Robertson.
