Colorado has a lot of great news outlets, but the Colorado Times Recorder has a lane that we own: We report on politics from an openly progressive perspective, calling out election deniers and bigotry; correcting misinformation on conservative media platforms, reporting on dangerous groups and events, fact-checking public figures and activists, and educating the public on issues that matter most to progressives.
No Colorado news outlet relentlessly exposes Colorado’s election deniers like we do, calling them out by name and listing election-denying candidates.
No Colorado news outlet covers attacks on the LGBTQ community or women’s reproductive rights like we do — or of bigoted attacks (like our reporting on antisemitic Facebook memes posted by a political candidate’s chief of staff — which led to her getting fired.)
No Colorado news outlet fact checks conservative news outlets like we do.
And no Colorado news outlet exposes the threat of Christian nationalism like we do, including a bombshell investigative series this year into a Bible college and its founder.
If you peruse our website even briefly, and look at our track record, you’ll see the impact and scope of our progressive, fact-based, nonprofit news outlet.
Now is obviously the time for us to step up, and we will.
Please remember us before time runs out on Colorado Gives Day. Donate here.
Thank you,
