A local paper that is supposed to serve all of Boulder county but really just serves the City of Boulder. The Camera is now in serious financial decline from years of serving the status quo and alienating readers rather than doing objective informational reporting. I began to loose respect for this paper when they came out with obnoxiously long editorials endorsing people like Richard Polk and then gently trying to justify themselves after he was arrested for drunk driving and drugs. The Camera is never critical of the City Council and you'll choke on the paper's lack of objectivity and political correctness. (And I use the term "arrested" loosely here. Richard Polk was ticketed and then taxied home by the Boulder Police.) The worst thing about the Camera is that it constantly runs down Longmont and allows it's readers to do so as well. What happened to "proudly serving Boulder County"? The reporters at the Camera are so stuck up that they think the City of Boulder IS Boulder County. The Camera runs down Longmont in so many subtle and overt ways-from only running articles about crime in Longmont, to encouraging abuse of the city by the posters on the web site, to misleading headlines, and never writing a single positive article about Longmont or it's citizens.Oddly enough, they never turn that same critical eye on the City of Boulder. And when crime in Longmont does happen, they devote days of articles to those crimes. When the same exact crime happens in Boulder, it gets a small mention and no follow-up. Look through Camera headlines for Longmont for the past several months-you'll be hard pressed to find a single one that is positive. And while you're there-check out the comments under those articles. It's entertaining, but a true indication of how nasty citizens of Boulder can be. And then there are the posters on the Daily Camera website-every single time there is an article about Longmont, Daily Camera readers comment over and over and over again about the hicks in Longmont, about "good old methmont", etc. The Camera refuses to censor these comments. But when someone bashes Boulder? The Camera kicks them off. Worse, I've seen Camera editors devote entire editorials to demanding apologies from Boulder bashers. But Longmont bashing is an acceptable Camera activity. I used to think I'd be upset when we didn't have a local paper, but the Camera is going bankrupt because of poor service-NOT the economy. Huge informational errors, biased reporting, Longmont bashing, militant defense of the status quo...who needs it? The one exception to this is Ryan Morgan. He seems to accurately report on the City Council. But John Aguilar and all the kooky editors and columnists? Terrible. And in case you think I exagerrate: "Posted by KR on May 1, 2009 at 7:19 p.m. (Suggest removal) Ah, Longmont ... what's left to say? Least it's not Meth this time." Posted by Gad_Deelzhah on April 28, 2009 at 11:35 p.m. (Suggest removal) Longmont, the city that keeps on giving. What the hell is wrong with that place? Posted by BoulderConfidential on May 1, 2009 at 5:05 p.m. (Suggest removal) Remember in the 80s when cocaine was an Elitist thing? All bad roads lead to Longmont Colorado. Posted by manbearpig on May 1, 2009 at 7:05 a.m. (Suggest removal) Okay then: These things happen in Bongmont. Posted by The1 on April 23, 2009 at 9:42 a.m. (Suggest removal) Crip's and Bloods are in Longmont! watch out they have their underground operation and cell phones that that call each other on to keep tabs on hate the propagate. Posted by I_Drink_Your_Milkshake on April 21, 2009 at 10:03 a.m. (Suggest removal) Aurora, Longmont and C Springs should have a royal rumble to decide once and for all which town is the most ghetto. Posted by sawyer on April 21, 2009 at 10:21 a.m. (Suggest removal) These things happen in Longtucky ! Posted by sidd on April 17, 2009 at 9:15 a.m. (Suggest removal) Life and times in Longmont. Anymore I see Longmont in the news title and I am scared to open the article." Posted by sidd on April 17, 2009 at 1:09 p.m. (Suggest removal) Yeah what get sport maybe the Longmont police department can give her a trophy. Then maybe her daughter can grow up and use her daughter to go fishing for pedophiles generations of family fun in good ol Longmont. Yeah I was wrong nothing at all wrong with Longmont, actually they have some of the best meth on the Front Range. Here's the best by far: Posted by squompois on April 18, 2009 at 1:48 a.m. (Suggest removal) All this talk defending Longmont and its decidedly low brow residents is disengenious at best. It's soooo obvious the trailer trash team has an inferiority complex. I think its time you people admit your station in life and get back to your daily grinds carving out whatever kind of life one can take from living in such a town as Longmont. "But, but but it's in Boulder County!" You people are really dishonoring yourselve read more

Abysmal opinion pieces that only reflect the interests of the seemingly innocuous "white privilege". Apart from that, their writers do little to innovate and bring in topics to their readers, especially important ones. There is no Latinx recognition, nor the issues Boulder faces regarding this demographic. There is poor inclusion of people of color in their articles. A majority of the topics and opinions literally only reflect those who already afford to think in such ways. There is no talk about the contributions of people of color impact the city which makes me wonder if it is even appreciated at all. College towns generally gravitate towards artistry and cultural innovation although this publication yields little of that, especially with people of color. I am disappointed with how left-leaning publications are churning a morally justified form of white privilege and how this type of thinking supercedes even the opinions of those who are disproportionately affected. Talk about white-splaining. Despite hunting being a remarkable outlet for state-wide recreation and self-defense becoming a priority in many individual's lives, they don't respect or tolerate gun rights. The degree of white privilege is abhorrent. Imagine being part of a disproportionately affected demographic that ethically carries firearms but remains to be an invisible example of what a law-abiding, firearm-possessing person of color looks like? Are they not aware how their regurgitated opinions on gun control are what saturates the abysmal mentality existent in facets of abusive law enforcement? A facet where, repeatedly, we observe the abuse of law enforcement's tyrannical interpretation of legislature on people of color simply because they MAY possess a firearm? Makes me think they literally have no idea what possessing a firearm entails, nor do they have any interest how such an amendment protects people of color from the ghettos white culture has created. The disregard for disproportionately affected demographics combined with their virtue-centered writing is quite like a right-wing religious publication you would have the misfortune to read at a mega-church. It's quite like them asking: "Don't like what we publish? There's something wrong with you and we're far beyond justified because we obviously center ourselves in self-justified vacuum chambers of opinions. I'm ashamed of publications like this. They contribute to facets of our society that are culturtally divisive and serve only those who can bounce back from the cushion of privilege. My readings are generally left-leaning although I'm smart enough to realize when the writing resembles the flight of an uneven and lopsided bird after being encouraged in only needs one wing for flight. I appreciate cities that may lean left because there is always a progressive form of thinking that enables culture-shock and inclusion. It may not be widespread although, in some alley or business, it is happening. It is why I moved here although the aggressive and tasteless turn privileged liberalism takes is quite identical to the justified interpretations by religious zealots that will cause cultural, and subsequently, private afflictions. I can already imagine the disapproval and dismissal of those who either work for the publication, or simply approve of it. I appreciate cities that may lean left because there is always a progressive form of thinking that enables culture-shock and inclusion. It may not be widespread although, in some alley or business, it is happening. I should be clear: there is nothing progressive about excluding people of color from the majority of your publications, nor the dismissal of how gun control literally affects those who intend on ethically possessing them, especially if they're people of color. Again, being a pawn for the type of thinking that does little to help, or may directly contribute to the demise of any support for disproportionately affected people of color, is the primary issue that those of us face every day. This is disappointing. If you are seeking a publication where the writers are remarkably unchallenged yet praised for sharing their semi-digested meals from others that regurgitate the same opinions, you have found your penguin pals. read more

The first review has a quote that says it all: "Posted by sidd on April 17, 2009 at 1:09 p.m. (Suggest removal) Yeah what get sport maybe the Longmont police department can give her a trophy. Then maybe her daughter can grow up and use her daughter to go fishing for pedophiles generations of family fun in good ol Longmont." It figures that someone from the Pedophile Pampering capital of the USA would be blaming the victims and defending to pederasts. Boulderites probably blamed Jon Benet Ramsey for wearing a skirt. So, naturally, the paper reflects the values of the community it serves. Which is why it is a bunch of molesters and date-rapists writing about their experiences as Big Fish in a Little Pond. Every article written by the new hires seems to relate every topic to an experience they had in college. While every article written by the jogger, seems to relate every topic to jogging. In summation, this rag is little more than a pedo-funded advertising circular, barely held together by the most arrogant dorky white alpha males this whiteflight town can muster. read more

After enduring years of Boulder city-centric focus to the exclusion of much of Boulder County, with the inherent new-wave touchy-feely bent, on 2/23/2011 the Daily Camera printed a press release (thinly disguised as an article) from a rabbit slaughterer accompanied by a photo showing her holding and petting a rabbit she will kill and eat. The dishonesty and transparent endorsement of this wretched business was reprehensible. I cancelled my subscription, wrote to the editor, Yelped and will continue to use every opportunity to expose the journalistic train wreck that is the Daily Camera. read more

Garbage "paper". Garbage digital. Here's typical Daily Camera storytelling paired with marketing: a headline and photo about a child predator in your hometown, with 'SUBSCRIBER ONLY" over it. You can only read for free the things that don't matter, but anything salacious or possibly troubling or dangerous to you or your children will have to be paid for. It's horrible, all while they claim to stand for progressive principles. DO NOT SUBSCRIBE and get your local news from all of the great accounts on X.com. read more

The Daily Camera employs very low quality reporters who aren't really interested in accurate information. They are agenda-driven and want to follow their own story, not necessarily the truth. They don't report on half of what goes on in Boulder County and honestly, the interface is bad, the advertising is bad, the editing is bad. What is positive about it? I wish someone would start another news publication in Boulder. read more

I bought a year subscription to the Daily Camera which expired after 11 months. I called customer service to find out that they terminated my subscription early because they said they sent me a few "special editions", which I never received. How is it that a year subscription can be terminated before the year is up? The customer service agent, who sounded like a high schooler, was also very rude and unprofessional. read more

This publication consistently suffers from poor writing and editing. The writing lacks clarity and precision, which is expected from professional journalism. Many articles are difficult to follow and fail to engage the reader. Coming from out of state, I had the impression that Boulder was an educated town, but after reading the Daily Camera, it's hard to see that reflected in the quality of the writing. read more

The daily camera. Reporting the news that doesn't matter to people who don't have anything better to read. Or Articles of no importance to one small boulder county demographic. Or The jester of papers where it's ok to mock people and pat ourselves on the back Or This paper is written by a bunch of unintelligent, uncultured, untraveled losers who have never left Colorado. read more

NEVER subscribe to this liberal paper. The articles are so biased, it makes them impossible to read. (unless you are a left wing zealot). Cancelled my subscription, still getting billed, 4 phone calls and 4 BS excuses. Awful paper in so many ways. No wonder no one buys print anymore. Hope they go bankrupt soon!! read more

Terrible content, horrible writers and editors, biased, inaccurate information and they don't cover important things in the community. I wish there was some competition in Boulder County. It's so obvious after dealing with them that there is a really poor culture in the company. read more

Christy Fantz, (editor) wrote an article for the Boulder Daily Camera entitled: "What to gift a Silver Fox for his 90th birthday". In my opinion, this article is so offensive (especially to seniors) that I cannot write about it here... read more
