Probable compulsive liar and Republican vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan has some thoughts on prayer in public school, and those thoughts are: let the states decide! At a campaign stop in Utah, a campaign volunteer with nine children asked Ryan if "we could give back to the states the right to decide if you want…

On the advice of a friend, Utah's mysterious "Goat Man" has revealed that he is not just another guy wandering the mountains dressed as a goat — he's actually a hunter testing the efficacy of his goat-themed hunting disguise.

A man in Utah couldn't stop looking at these weird goats, so he did the obvious thing: he started dressing like one and frolicking with a goat herd through the Utah wilderness. But what seems like a strange obsession could soon have real and dangerous consequences – goat hunting season starts in September.

Jeanette Bennett, the Utah Valley Magazine editor who attracted some attention recently for appending the headline "Women of Color" to a photo of her all-white staff, has penned a thoughtful and heartfelt response to her critics on her personal blog, Jeanette Gazette. The upshot: As a Mormon, she knows what it's like…

If you were the editor of Utah Valley Magazine, and you needed a headline to accompany your editor's note for the "Women's Issue," and you had selected this photograph of your female staffers to illustrate it, what would you pick for a headline? How about the one thing the photo most certainly does not depict?

Maybe it was the Mormon church largely funding California's anti-gay marriage Proposition 8. Maybe they just really liked the Tony Award-winning Book of Mormon. Either way, a group of 150 Mormons quit the church in a mass resignation ceremony to express their displeasure with the religion.

Even if he secures the Democratic nomination in Tuesday's primary, 1st District House candidate Ryan Combe knows getting voters in the dark-red state of Utah to send him to Washington will not come easy.

Viewers of TLC's Sister Wives have just been robbed of a very juicy plotline: it was announced Thursday that Kody Brown and his four wives (listed in order of greatness: Meri, Christine, Janelle, and Robyn) won't be prosecuted for bigamy.

Ah Utah. Always upping the ante on truly abominable, horrifying things.

Two men whose parents did not raise them well have been arrested in Utah after allegedly setting up potentially deadly homemade booby traps to ensnare travelers along a popular hiking trail.

Provo-Orem, Utah is the nation's most optimistic metropolitan area, according to the results of a Gallup poll released earlier this week. This could explain why Provo-Orem, Utah just doesn't "get" your cynical, Big City humor.

The polygamous family behind TLC's Sister Wives has had just about enough of your judgment, thanks. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Patriarch Kody Brown and his wives Meri, Janelle, Christine, and Robin are moving forward with a lawsuit challenging Utah's anti-bigamy laws.

There are two possible explanations for these horrendously mislabeled graphics from yesterday's Special Report with Brett Baier: one, that no one at Fox News knows or cares about where Nevada and New Hampshire are; or two, that the network is somehow trying to fool the Obama administration into pumping millions of…

Even without waffle-iron rioting and bloody police beat-downs, the standard Black Friday shopping experience is utterly terrifying. Just watch this video featuring hundreds of shoppers storming the Urban Outfitters at Thousand Oaks Mall in California and tremble at the sight of so many people running toward the…

West Valley City, Utah mayor Mike Winder was sick 'n' tired of reading newspaper stories that depicted his town as some kind of crime-infested hellhole, so he adopted the pen name Richard Burwash and started covering his local news as a freelance writer. He had access to the mayor's office like no other freelancer…

Looks like police officers on duty at a high school football game in Roosevelt, Utah pulled a Tony Bologna move the other night when they pepper-sprayed a group of about 15 Polynesian fellows who were performing the Haka, a traditional dance, in honor of a relative who was playing in the game. The police also…

Uh, a good start? That's the number of participants who showed up to the Utah Undie Run on Saturday night, an event held to protest that state's world-famous Mormon puritanism.

There were many lessons you could have taken away from the movie 127 Hours, but if you had to boil it down to just one, it would probably be this: Never head out on a solo hiking trip to Utah's Canyonlands National Park without telling anyone. Well, Amos Wayne Richards, a 64-year-old from Concord, North Carolina, took…

Usually, when you're in a high-speed chase with the police, you only have three options: pull over and surrender, outrun the police and escape, or crash and die. But what if there were a fourth option?

David Alan Anderson is not an exemplary traveler. After the 60-year-old Salt Lake City native recently boarded a Las Vegas-bound Delta flight, he immediately started elbowing the passenger seated directly next to him in an attempt to "claim" the armrest, according to a federal complaint. That led to Anderson putting…
