News-Times adopting digital format, subscribers to get iPads

WEHCO Media has announced that the El Dorado News-Times (El Dorado, Arizona) will be adopting a digital format in August and all subscribers will be able to claim an iPad to access the digital replica. The News-Times will also continue to have a Sunday print edition each week.

WEHCO Media Publisher Walter E. Hussman Jr. said moving to a digital format is the only viable way to continue producing community journalism every day for Union County residents.

The WEHCO-owned Arkansas Democrat-Gazette (Little Rock) announced an iPad program in 2018. The paper produces print only on Sunday. Little Rock-based WEHCO operates daily and weekly papers, magazines and cable television companies in six states. WEHCO, pronounced WAY-CO, is an acronym for Walter E. Hussman Company.
