Arkansas recently passed three discriminatory laws targeting transgender people, particularly trans youth, including measures denying them health care and banning them from sports. Local print coverage of these laws was often lacking, as journalists rarely talked to trans people they impact and largely failed to push back against bigotry and anti-trans misinformation.
A Media Matters review of local media from February 2 when the first legislation was introduced through April 7 the day after the third law was passed found that Arkansas newspapers printed 32 articles on one or more of these laws and only 12, about 38%, included the perspective of a trans or nonbinary person. About 56% of the articles came from one paper, The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette.

A piece of Cold War history is now available as an Airbnb property.
Titan Ranch, located at 23 Missile Base Road in Vilonia, Arkansas, offers renters the chance to spend a night underground in a converted intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) facility. The facility was one of 18 underground Titan II missile silos in Arkansas that helped form the backbone of the United States nuclear arsenal from the 1960s until the 1980s.
When in service, the 110-foot long, 10-foot wide Titan II missile carried the largest warhead the United States military ever placed on an ICBM. Had the Cold War ever turned hot, it was capable of being launched in one minute and could deliver its 9 megaton warhead to a target 9,000 miles away.
