The Times-Gazette was founded in 1919 through the merger of two competing El Dorado dailies,[1] the El Dorado Republican (founded May 5, 1885) and the Walnut Valley Times (founded March 4, 1870, daily since March 1, 1887).
GateHouse Media merged the operations of the Times-Gazette with the Andover American and Augusta Daily Gazette.
