MEDIA LANDSCAPE IN ARKANSAS

Rooted in a frontier publishing tradition dating back to the 1819 territorial era, the local press is defined by a divide between a dominant capital daily and smaller rural publications. The flagship is the Arkansas Democrat Gazette in Little Rock, a WEHCO Media property noted for its 1990s newspaper war victory and recent transition to an iPad-centric delivery model. WEHCO also publishes the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette to serve the rapidly expanding Ozark corridor, while Gannett owns the Southwest Times Record in Fort Smith. Providing alternative regional coverage, the Arkansas Times operates as a prominent progressive weekly. Paperboy indexes 84 Arkansas newspapers — browse the full directory below.
