The paper covers several communities in northern and eastern Butler County, Kansas, part of the Wichita metropolitan area. In addition to El Dorado, The Times-Gazette's coverage area includes Benton, Leon, Potwin, Towanda and Whitewater.
The Times-Gazette was founded in 1919 through the merger of two competing El Dorado dailies,[1] the El Dorado Republican (founded May 5, 1885) and the Walnut Valley Times (founded March 4, 1870, daily since March 1, 1887).
GateHouse Media merged the operations of the Times-Gazette with the Andover American and Augusta Daily Gazette.
The publication was renamed from the El Dorado Times to the Butler County Times-Gazette.
