The Duxbury Clipper is an independent, community newspaper published for and about the residents of Duxbury, Massachusetts. The Clipper was founded by John and Bobbie Cutler on May 11, 1950 and has been published every week since.

We are not traded on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange, owned by a New York Hedge Fund or run by Rupert Murdoch.

The early history of the Clipper is chronicled in two delightful books, "Put it on the Front Page, Please!" and "Cancel My Subscription, Please!" Both books are now out of print but can still be found in some bookstores and thrift shops.

The Clipper remains a family-owned newspaper spanning three four generations of the Cutler family. Today, David S. Cutler serves as president and Joshua S. Cutler serves as editor & publisher. Future editor Charlie Cutler can occasionally be found toddling around the Clipper office in diapers.
