Arkansas Democrat-Gazette

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, commonly abbreviated locally as the Dem-Gaz or Demgaz, is a daily newspaper published in Little Rock, Arkansas.

By virtue of one of its predecessors, the Arkansas Gazette (founded in 1819), it claims to be the oldest continuously published newspaper west of the Mississippi River; however, due to interruptions in 1850 and during the Civil War, and especially how the Gazette was merged into the Arkansas Democrat in 1991, that claim is disputable.

Itself, the Arkansas Democrat came into being in 1878 when In 1878 J.N. Smithee bought a newspaper and changed its name to the Arkansas Democrat,

Critics of the Democrat-Gazette continue to argue that the paper is more conservative than its Little Rock subscriber base. The Democrat-Gazette points out that its op-ed pages are open to many different viewpoints and that it accurately reflects its statewide constituency.
