Times Media Group says it will revive Tempe newspaper in February

The owner of dozens of news publications in Arizona and Southern California plans to relaunch an old Tempe newspaper next month under a different name.

The Tempe Daily News stopped publishing in 2009 after a run of 123 years.

Times Media Group later acquired the paper when it bought the East Valley Tribune.

Now the company plans to revive the paper as a weekly publication called the Tempe Tribune.

Matthew Casey has won Edward R. Murrow awards for hard news and sports reporting since he joined KJZZ as a senior field correspondent in 2015.
