The Las Vegas Review-Journal is the premier daily newspaper in Las Vegas , Nevada . It was founded in 1909. It has a daily circulation of more than 232,000 copies (paid editions, printed and digital, as of Q3 2015).
In 2010 it was announced that longtime editor -in- chief Sherman Frederick would be replaced by Bob Brown. In late 2015, casino billionaire Sheldon Adelson acquired the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

Smith was sued by Adelson in 2005 over a passage in a book he had written, won the case, but then went bankrupt.
