The El Paso Times is the newspaper for the US city of El Paso, Texas. The paper is the only English-language daily in El Paso (after the El Paso Herald-Post, an afternoon paper, closed in 1997), but often competes with the Spanish-language El Diario de El Paso, an offshoot of El Diario de Juárez which is published across the Rio Grande in Ciudad Juárez, Mexico.

History

El Paso Times' logo until 2020

The paper was founded in 1881 by Marcellus Washington Carrico. The Times first published April 2, 1881. It originally started out as a weekly but within a year's time, it became the daily newspaper for the frontier town.

Gannett bought the Times in 1972.[2] In 2003, Gannett and MediaNews Group formed a partnership between the Times and MediaNews' New Mexico papers, with Gannett as the managing partner.[3] In December 2005, Gannett became a minority partner in the El Paso Times, handing the majority of the partnership and management to Denver-based MediaNews Group.[4] In 2015, Gannett acquired full ownership of the Texas-New Mexico Newspapers Partnership from MediaNews successor Digital First Media.[5] Later that year, Gannett split into two, with one having broadcasting and digital properties (Tegna) and another with newspapers (the new Gannett). The latter retained the Times.

Barbara Funkhouser served as editor of the El Paso Times from 1980 to 1986, the first woman to hold that position.[6] Zahira Torres became the editor of the paper in 2017, making her the second woman and first Latina to lead the El Paso Times. [7]
