Support the independent voice of Denver and help keep the future of Westword free.
The banner above popped up this morning on IWantMyRocky.com, a website that began as a way of rallying support for the Rocky Mountain News after the venerable tabloid was put up for sale by its owner, E.W. Scripps, this past December, but has now become a web vehicle featuring new material posted by former Rocky employees. Thus far, none of the IWantMyRocky.com crew is saying what "It" is. But one thing seems clear: "It"'s coming.
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.
