When New Times purchased a small fortnightly newspaper in late 1987, the Miami metropolitan area was served by two dailies, populated with aging retirees, begging for tourists, and struggling to invent a place called South Beach. Following the arrival of thousands of Cuban immigrants, it moved to a Latin beat.

Today the Latin beat remains, but other things have changed. There is only one daily paper. The median age has dropped dramatically. Tourists come to play year-round. South Beach's nightlife scene is world-famous. And Miami New Times has become the region's essential compendium of news and information for residents and visitors alike.

Drawing on the talents of writers and editors from across the nation, Miami New Times now circulates 70,000 papers. But we’re much more than that. The website miaminewtimes.com is viewed 700,000 times per week. Dozens of posts every day on our news, feature, and food blogs have made us an around-the-clock news source. Newsletters, media partnerships, and events such as Artopia that draw thousands of visitors have transformed this old media company into something completely new. Indeed, we are now part of the Village Voice chain, which manages 14 papers across the country.

The old reputation is still intact, though. Compelling investigative work, insightful coverage of local arts and entertainment, and high-caliber feature journalism have spread our reputation far beyond South Florida. The paper has won more than 100 first-place awards for editorial excellence, statewide and nationally.

Miami New Times is still young and dynamic. And of course, like the city it serves, it moves to a Latin beat.
