After enduring 12 years of a bitter and fiercely contested newspaper war, the ''Arkansas Gazette'' published its final edition on October 18, 1991, ending what had become a 172 year-old business. The assets of the newspaper were sold to Walter E. Hussman, Jr., owner and publisher of the competing '''''Arkansas Democrat'''''. Hussman renamed the surviving paper the ''''' Arkansas Democrat-Gazette '''''. The surviving newspaper proclaims itself a descendant of the ''Arkansas Gazette'', but this viewpoint is disputed by the 726 full-time and 1,200 part-time employees of the ''Arkansas Gazette'' who lost their jobs with the demise of their newspaper.
