The Weatherford Democrat is a five-day daily newspaper published in Weatherford, Texas, on Tuesday through Friday and on Saturday. Covering Parker County, Texas, it is owned by Community Newspaper Holdings Inc.[4]
Amid large revenue losses associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the Mineral Wells Index, a sister CNHI newspaper located about 20 miles away, published its last issue in May 2020 and merged with the Democrat, which plans to cover both areas.[5][6]
