Sad news. The online publication, Florida Independent, will be shutting down at the end of the month. The Independent was a breath of hope, that journalism freed from the costs of print could take a more independent point of view than those battered on one side by internet news aggregators and, the other, by corporate driven journalism cautious not to tread on advertisers' toes. Here is the kind of reporting that we will miss: Sugar Industry, Fanjuls cash in while taxpayers foot bill.

I am so sorry. The Florida Independent was wonderful. It reduced laborious reading to headlines where one could quickly read the whole story if they wanted. I will surely miss it.
