Florida Today is the major daily newspaper serving Melbourne, Brevard County and the Space Coast region of Florida. It is a venture of the media conglomerate Gannett.
In addition to its regular daily publication, Florida Today publishes four weekly and eight biweekly community newspapers which are tailored for distinct neighborhoods within Brevard County. Daily circulation (50¢/issue) of the main publication is about 85,000, with Sunday circulation ($1.50/issue) is about 110,000. Circulation of the paper tends to be higher in the winter, but lower in the summer.
[edit] The Verge
The teen section The Verge is "by, for and about teens." The section was composed by 40 students, as long as they were under 20 (most were in local high schools, but a few attended the local Brevard Community College). The section had regular articles in rotation such as Generation Gaps, where teens and someone from a different generation (parent, teacher, coach, etc.) wrote opposing views to a topic and regulated riots, which were less popular but the same premise with two Verge writers. The section began expanding into other parts of the paper and throughout the week - while it originally published on the back of the Sunday's People section.
At a 2006 conference, The Verge won its first two national awards: First and Second Place for Best News Story.
