KEY WEST, Fla. — Above the Fold is marking a paid-subscriber milestone and publisher Ted Lund’s 57th birthday with a limited promotion offering annual subscriptions and annual renewals for $57.

“I know — it’s an uber-original concept,” Lund said. “I got the idea during the Key West mayoral campaign.”

The “57 for $57” offer is available to the next 10 subscribers or until Aug. 30, whichever comes first. The promotional price represents a savings of $23, or nearly 30% off the regular annual rate of $80.

Above the Fold’s business model is built around keeping its reporting free and available to all subscribers. Paid supporters make that possible.

Your support helps make reporting like this — which would never see the light of day otherwise — possible:

Subscriptions help keep the lights on, the laser printer stocked, the internet connected and the cellphone buzzing. They also help pay for public-records requests, document fees, equipment, and the other costs of reporting the news and holding public officials and other powerful interests accountable in Key West and throughout the Florida Keys.

The Fourth Estate cannot remain ever vigilant without your support.

Readers who refer three new subscribers will also receive one month free.

After the 10 promotional annual subscriptions or renewals have been claimed — or until Aug. 30 — the annual rate returns to $80.

Lund’s friends and family did not return calls seeking comment on his 57th birthday other than to say: “He is old!”
