With a short three-sentence statement on its website, Marty Davis, publisher of the 28-year-old Just Out newspaper, announced Portland's LGBT newspaper would cease publication after its December issue.

"Effective December 26, 2011, Just Out newsmagazine, serving Portland's LGBTQ community since 1983, is no longer in business," the statement said. "Three years of recession have taken their toll. Please direct all inquiries to Marty Davis at marty@justout.com. Thank you for your many years of readership and support."
