A picturesque town at the edge of Rocky Mountain National Park will be the setting for a new digital news outlet angling to “fill a void” left by a shrinking daily newspaper.
The community just needs more journalism, said editor Patti Brown, founder of the emerging Estes Valley Voice, in a recent interview.
Brown formerly served as executive editor of the Estes Park Trail-Gazette, which is financially controlled by the Alden Global Capital hedge fund known for gutting its newspapers. When Brown took over in 2022, the newsroom was “basically a skeletal staff,” she said.
Brown left and decided to start up her own thing. This week, she announced the Voice would go live later this summer.
