Niagara Gazette

The Niagara Gazette, founded as a weekly newspaper in 1854, published its first daily edition in 1893. Today it is owned by Community Newspapers Holding Inc. (CNHI), with headquarters in Alabama. From its inception, the Gazette has been committed to responsible journalism, serving the community with daily news coverage of events and happenings that impact its readers. For decades the newspaper was owned by Allison C. Deuel, a former business manager who served as publisher until his death in 1954, when the Gannett Co. purchased the newspaper. In 1957, the Gazette launched its Sunday edition. Within two years, its readership soared with construction on the $720 million Niagara Project that brought some 10,000 workers to this area.
