Where do Coloradans get their state and local news — and how? Who do they trust, what are they paying for — and why? What roles do Coloradans think local journalists should be playing in our democracy — and how well do they think local newsrooms are doing?

To develop a deeper understanding of how Colorado residents consume, evaluate, and trust state and local media, Colorado Media Project worked with Corona Insights in the summer of 2022 to design a questionnaire that collected relevant data from more than 1,800 Colorado residents from across the state. The survey included questions from previous statewide surveys commissioned by CMP (in 2018 and 2019) and national benchmarks from Gallup/Knight Foundation surveys on Trust, Media and Democracy.
