The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette was formed in 1991 when the Arkansas Democrat purchased the assets of the Arkansas Gazette. The Gazette the historically morning newspaper dates to 1819 and the Democrat the historically afternoon newspaper dates to 1878. Over the years the newspapers were fierce competitors especially for ad dollars but also they often took different views on events of the time. For most the their competing history the Gazette was the substantially larger of the two. The battle was costly and in the end the Democrat purchased the assets of the Gazette with the last Gazette published October 18, 1991, and the first Arkansas Democrat-Gazette published the next morning, October 19, 1991.
