The Rhinoceros Times is a weekly conservative news and opinion newspaper that publishes editions in Greensboro.

The Greensboro Rhino is edited by John Hammer and features editorial columns by noted science fiction and fantasy author Orson Scott Card and an investigative series by New York Times best-selling author Jerry Bledsoe. It is generally known for extensive coverage of local issues, explicit political opinions and a policy of publishing all letters regardless of content or political orientation.

The newspaper published two of the controversial Jyllands-Posten Muhammad cartoons in February, 2006.[1] Weekly features also include comics, such as Get Fuzzy and Pearls Before Swine, the syndicated "News of the Weird" column, the New York Times crossword puzzle, and a Sudoku puzzle. The Rhino is owned by brothers John and William Hammer. The Greensboro Rhino Times refers to itself as "Greensboro's Only Newspaper," while the Charlotte edition's slogan is "Be more than an Observer". (Charlotte's daily paper is the Charlotte Observer.)
