Together, we can protect the future of Arkansas news.

IMAGINE A WORLD WITHOUT TRUSTED AND UNBIASED INFORMATION.

Knowledge is power and when a community loses its local newspaper, it suffers a decline in civic engagement. Studies show that residents without local news are less likely to vote, contact local officials or run for office. A community without a newspaper becomes disconnected from information about its government, schools, local businesses, neighborhood events and more. A community without a newspaper also loses its historical record.

The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette is the state’s largest newspaper and one of the last statewide newspapers in America. For over two centuries, our dedicated team has stood as a beacon of truth in our community. The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette isn’t just a news outlet; we are the guardians of transparency, accountability and democracy itself.

To maintain this commitment to produce the best statewide newspaper, the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette needs help from the community. Supporting local independent journalism enhances the quality of historic information on record and helps journalists dig deeper into topics that matter the most to Arkansans.
