History
The Gazette was founded in 1854 as the Niagara Falls Gazette.[1]
The Gazette was owned by Gannett from 1954 to 1997. Gannett was formed in 1923 by Frank Gannett, a noted conservative,[2] in Rochester, New York as an outgrowth of a newspaper business he had begun in Elmira, New York in 1906.[3]
In a 1996 deal, that closed in 1997, Gannett acquired Buffalo's WGRZ.[4] Due to U.S. Federal Communications Commission regulations, Gannett was required to sell the paper.[4] It was bought by Community Newspaper Holdings Inc., along with other area newspapers such as the Lockport Union-Sun & Journal and the former Tonawanda News.[5]
Daily price
Niagara Gazette prices are: daily, $1.50 & Weekend/Thanksgiving Day, $3.00.
