The Miami New Times is a newspaper published in Miami, Florida, United States, and distributed every Thursday. It primarily serves the Miami area, and is headquartered in Miami's Wynwood Art District.[3]
It was acquired by Village Voice Media, then known as New Times Media, in 1987, when it was a fortnightly newspaper called the Wave.[4] The paper has won numerous awards,[5] including a George Polk Award for coverage of the Major League steroid scandal in 2014[6] and first place in 2008 among weekly papers from the Investigative Reporters and Editors for stories about the Julia Tuttle Causeway sex offender colony.[7] In 2010, the paper garnered international attention[8] when it published a story by Brandon K. Thorp and Penn Bullock which revealed that anti-gay activist George Alan Rekers had hired a male prostitute to accompany him on a trip to Europe.[9]
In September 2012, Village Voice Media executives Scott Tobias, Christine Brennan, and Jeff Mars bought Village Voice Media's papers and associated web properties from its founders and formed Voice Media Group.[10]
Author Steve Almond is a former writer for the Miami New Times.[11] Former Two Live Crew rapper Luther Campbell is a columnist for the paper.[12]
