The Colorado Sun: A stiff wind rippled a makeshift sign marking the new home of The Burlington Record as a man pushed open the storefront door and approached the front desk, where a fresh stack of newspapers served notice that reports of the 136-year-old civic institution’s demise were greatly exaggerated.

In its current office on 14th Street, just a few blocks north of the sprawling, freestanding building that formerly housed the paper, newly hired Record employee Shelby Carter tended to the visitor’s request. He wanted to purchase a subscription — just the latest in a wave of support that greeted the paper’s sudden closure and unexpected revival by a businessman hailed as a local hero. 

“In just the past week I’ve done at least 10 subscriptions, if not more,” Carter said. “And that’s just me.”
