Printed in Little Rock Arkansas, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette is their newspaper of record. It is published in Lowell and distributed in seventy five counties. The newspaper was founded in 1819 and claims to be the oldest published newspaper west of the Mississippi River. The first newspaper was printed on a second-hand wooden press. The Gazette was in the forefront of leading the campaign for Arkansas statehood in 1836. The newspaper actually failed for a short time but later regained control. The Gazette and the Democrat, before they were combined, spent many years warring with words, and sometimes escalated into gunfire. The Gazette was briefly sold to Gannett in 1986, but then it was sold it is rival, the Democrat, in 1991. Since the merger, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette has maintained higher circulation than any other similar sized cities. Critics of the Democrat-Gazette believe that the newspaper is more conservative than the Little Rock subscriber base.
