The El Campo Leader-News and the Wharton Journal-Spectator have joined forces, becoming the Wharton County Leader-Journal. They’ll cover all of Wharton County and continue to publish on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Subscriptions are now linked. The East Bernard Express remains unchanged, delivering on Thursdays to its own subscribers. The Leader-Journal offers comprehensive coverage, from elections to community events, sports, and more.
