Welcome to Valley Roundup. I’m Carolyn Sackariason.
My guests this week are Randy Essex, editor and publisher of the Glenwood Post Independent speaking via Skype, along with Curtis Wackerle, editor of the Aspen Daily News, David Cook, co-owner of the Aspen Daily News and Rick Carroll, managing editor of the Aspen Times.
The ownership of the Aspen Daily News changed hands this week. Having three real estate agents from Aspen Snowmass Sotheby’s as key investors has some wondering where future content may be headed.
But the new owner and publisher promises that the news will not be influenced.
And the editor of the Aspen Daily News hopes to continue the paper’s 39-year history.
