The closing of the storied Pittsburgh Post-Gazette is a reminder of just how fortunate we are in Arkansas to have @ArkansasOnline. This morning's paper is again full of Arkansas news & sports. @MikeWickline@ARPressAssoc@AKempWimberley
Today our industry lost a legend.
Nate Allen covered the Hogs for more than 52 years, and his contributions to both Arkansas sports and the newspaper industry are immeasurable.
The Arkansas General Assembly has wrapped up its first week of work and is now in recess until Tuesday, January 21.
We will keep you updated on any newspaper-related legislation here and in Arkansas Publisher Weekly.
A great group of APA Past Presidents were in attendance at the Press Freedom Gala.

Thank you @ARPressAssoc for this special award. I am honored to be alongside my friend & gifted educator @documentaryprof & the @arfoodbank which helps so many including several college & university campus food pantries.
In spring of โ75, I was awarded $250 scholarship from @ARPressAssoc
It paid tuition my Sr year @uarkjournalism.
Who would have imagined, all these years later, APA would select me for their journalism educator award?
I am honored, and humbled to be in company of @JLRIII
Save the date!
We will honor @arfoodbank as Headliner of the Year, @JLRIII Skip Rutherford with the Distinguished Service Award and recognize @documentaryprof Larry Foley as the Arkansas Journalism Educator of the Year.
