years of Progress ca 1937 The first newspaper in Gregg County was the "News Item" published in 1873, although several other papers date back into the nineteenth century, including the "Gregg County News" at one time published by James S Hogg, Governor of Texas. Other papers were the "Times Clarion" published by J W Johnson, the "Longview Leader" published by D B Coats and F A Taylor, and the "Gladewater Gazette" published by W C Holloway. The leading newspaper of East Texas at this time (Note: 1937) is published by Col. Carl Estes of Longview. He publishes two dailies, Longview Morning Journal and The Longview Daily News. There are also both daily and weekly newspapers at Gladewater and Kilgore. A labor paper, the Workers Forum, is published by F N Henderson at Gladewater. Amos Harper owns and publishes The East Texas American, a weekly newspaper, at Greggton. Jimmie Clifford owns and publishes a weekly newspaper, The Longview Ledger at Longview. |
