Arkansas County Broadcasters buys Stuttgart Daily Leader


Arkansas County Broadcasters has bought the Stuttgart Daily Leader (Arkansas).
The group operates under the East Arkansas Broadcasters (EAB) umbrella. East Arkansas Broadcasters is a family-owned media company that operates 51 radio signals in markets that include Jonesboro, Wynne and Stuttgart. EAB also operates the EAB Ag Network and the EAB Sports Network, radio partner of Arkansas State University and Arkansas Tech University.
“We are committed to strong local news, information and community involvement in all of our markets,” said Bobby Caldwell, owner and president of EAB. “We have operated this group of local radio stations for Stuttgart and the surrounding region since 1986 and look forward to continuing to provide the area with entertainment, news, information and great advertising outlets for many years to come. The purchase of the Stuttgart Daily Leader further solidifies this commitment.”
GateHouse had closed the paper Sept. 6, along with the Helena-West Helena World. GateHouse made a deal earlier this month to sell the Helena paper to area entrepreneur Chuck Davis, the paper reported.
