Inside Westword's 1990s music coverage (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As Westword enters into its 50th anniversary year, I have been trying to process a strange-but-true fact: I’ve been associated with the publication for most of that span. My first day as a staffer was October 1, 1990, and while I stepped away from fulltime Westword employment in late January 2023, my first freelance piece for the paper—an obituary of radio host Jay Marvin—appeared about a week later, and I’ve contributed approximately 200 more since then. Hence, this Thursday will mark my 36th a
Denver Post's former publisher on what's happened to local media over the past half-century (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Dean Singleton is the grand old man of Denver media. His company, MediaNews Group, purchased the Denver Post in 1987, and he was a key player in both operations until his retirement in 2013. Since then, he has been a close observer of not just the newspaper industry, but the broadcasting arena, as well. Between then and now, he sees enormous differences. “In the past 50 years, the total media model has been turned on its head,” he says. “Fifty years ago — and this is generic to the whole country
Climate change: Has Denver's local media dried up, or is this just evolution? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Media has always been rooted in change. But right now it’s tough to tell whether the medium is evolving, devolving or mutating in ways we may not understand for years. Since 1977, when Westword made its debut in Denver, the ways folks consume text, audio and video have radically changed. But the speed at which technology is currently altering long-established platforms and processes is flat-out inconceivable. What was accepted as communication gospel last week may soon be antiquated, with new fo
Five takeaways from Broncos' shameful game one fail versus Chiefs (opens the original)
Read excerpt
At the start of a new NFL year, the Denver Broncos aren’t getting any respect — and after their 31-10 slapdown by the Kansas City Chiefs last night, Sept. 14, they clearly deserve every slight they’re getting. At least so far. Last season was different. Granted, most national pundits didn’t go into the campaign seeing the Men of Orange as powerhouses. But the Broncos gave them reason to reconsider by way of a 14-3 record. Moreover, they only missed taking part in the Super Bowl because of a firs
New Colorado Springs music venue has incredible history behind it (opens the original)
Read excerpt
New venues don’t typically come with much history. But CityAud, a 4,000-seat showcase currently being assembled in Colorado Springs, is a significant exception. The CityAud building, located at 221 E. Kiowa St., opened to the public in 1923 under the Municipal Auditorium moniker. In more than a century since, it has hosted events ranging from ballets and Shakespeare plays to grain-and-feed expositions and boxing matches. But in recent years, according to veteran Colorado entrepreneur Jesse Morre
