The Gila News-Courier (September 12, 1942 to September 5, 1945) was the main publication of the Gila River camp, and one of the last of the ten War Relocation Authority camp newspapers to begin regular production and distribution. The News-Courier alternated from publishing every Wednesday and Saturday in its earliest weeks, to every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, out of the Canal News office located in Rec Hall 8.
