The Tombstone Epitaph, Arizona's oldest continuously published newspaper, was founded in 1880 by John Clum, who believed "no Tombstone is complete without its epitaph," and it documented the events of the Wild West, including the Gunfight at the O.K. Corral. The Tombstone Epitaph is considered a leading voice in documenting the rich history of the American West. The newspaper continues to be published today, with a focus on Western history.
