History

Founded in 1982 as a seasonal newspaper by Kevin Kelleher, the Lookout replaced as the Big Sky View.[2] The newspaper covered the abduction of biathlete Kari Swenson in 1984. It became a year-round weekly newspaper in 1992 and became Montana's first full-color weekly newspaper.[3]

It was acquired by Pioneer News Group in 1998,[3] and that company closed the Lookout in 2015 for financial reasons.[4] The Lookout reopened in 2017 under new ownership.[2]
