Key West the Newspaper Closes

As word spreads throughout the community that Key West the Newspaper has published it’s last print edition, let us use the comment section below to offer our thoughts, and reflect on what a tremendous asset the publication (along with it’s editor Dennis Reeves Cooper) has been to our small island community.

The desire to retire, along with the costs and pressures of publishing a weekly Newspaper have finally taken their toll as the good doctor heads off to new adventures in Brazil to catch up on some well deserved R&R. While we will try to keep the spirit alive at www.nakedconch.com, nothing will ever come close to the asset that Key West the Newspaper has been to all of us.

With this news the Keys have lost a tremendous voice with a perspective that is not offered in any other media source available in our small island chain.  We will miss Dr. Cooper, and Key West the Newspaper.

Fare thee well, and thank you.
