How to remove text without changing background [2013]

Hey there,

I'm having an issue. I need to remove the text saying "A Innland", but the background isn't quite the same at all points - the further right you go, the lighter it becomes. How would I go on about removing this?

The text is ingrained in the picture, it's originally not a photoshop file with a text layer on top.

I am using Photoshop CS6.

 

 

Thank you in advance!

Here's another way.

Press M for Rectangular Marquee Tool and select a strip of gradient above "INNLAND".

Press Cmd+T for Free Transform and stretch downwards to cover the type.

Do the same procedure to cover the "A".

You wouldn't remove it, you'd simply re-create the gradient to gover it up. Create a rectangular selection, pick the start and end color of the gradient with the eyedropper, fill it. Done.
