The Rocky Mountain News is in trouble, after 150 years. So much trouble, in fact, that they could make the announcement to close any day. Journalism is in crisis not just in Colorado, but around the country.

IWantMyRocky.com, Colorado Common Cause, and many others are coming together to speak out for the Rocky Mountain News and good journalism everywhere.

What: Rally to support Rocky Mountain News

Where: Outside Denver Newspaper Agency at 101 W Colfax Ave.

When: Sunday, March 1st

Time: 11:30AM

The story of the Rocky's demise should put us all on alert to the threat to journalism at large. While newspaper readership is on the rise, we are changing the ways we consume it. Our centers for good investigative reporting are not being supported to do their important work.

We need more voices fighting for the independent reporting that is the bedrock of our democracy. Without good reporters, we will no longer be able to hold power accountable.

Now more than ever, we need professional journalism to guide us and watchdog powerful interests. Information is power!

Please join us this Sunday.
