Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
Our daily slog through the local blogosphere.
Polis: If the healthcare debate is a DeLorean, and universal health care is 1985, then Rep. Joe Wilson's outburst was just the plutonium we needed. (Colorado Independent)
Also in the Polisphere, the congressman takes on detention reform for the new Huffington Post Denver. I prefer his tweets, personally. (HuffPo)
Former Buff Ted Johnson's plight has inspired other NFLers to "donate their brains" to science. (5280)
Keep Westword Free... Since we started Westword, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Denver, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Denver with no paywalls.
