The Columbine Courier (Colorado ) published its last edition on Dec. 27.
The paper
launched in 1989 as the Southwest Community Courier, and “nothing showed our
commitment to the community more than the hustle that was our coverage on that
tragic day of April 20, 1999,” the day of the Columbine High School
shooting, said a note from Editor Michael Hicks.
“We have
loved the role we have played in this community” said the note.
Evergreen
Newspapers, a division of Landmark Community Newspapers, in Shelbyville , Kentucky ,
owns the paper.
In another
note to readers, the paper said it’s considering expanding the reach of the
Canyon Courier, offering coverage in an area the Columbine Courier covered.
