Arkansas is stronger because of the dedicated newspaper professionals who ensure their communities have access to the information they need, but the challenges facing the newspaper industry are greater than ever. We were sorry to hear of yesterday’s staff cuts at the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, and recognize the personal and professional impact on those affected.

If you have positions open for advertising, newsroom, production and/or support staff at your publication please email the details to [email protected] for inclusion in the Arkansas Newspaper Connection, our weekly jobs bulletin. Likewise, we invite those affected to email their resumes.

We are proud to have member newspapers with the strength of the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette and the Northwest Arkansas Democrat-Gazette alongside the other 100+ community publications which serve all 75 counties across the state.

We remain committed to supporting Arkansas newspapers and the people who make local journalism possible.

Rebecca McGraw learned to read by sitting in her dad's lap as he read the newspaper to her -- starting at age one. He taught her how to sound out words by reading the headlines and the ads. He had her reading by age four.

Today, Rebecca is still reading and supporting newspapers through her integral role at the Arkansas Press Association. In this week's feature, she reflects on her 24 years (so far) at APA as a media buyer.

You can read about some of her standout moments, and other industry news, here:
