In the world of “content writing” (which we have a particular disdain for, see: https://yellowscene.com/2019/03/31/your-native-advertising-sucks-and-why-content-is-still-king), there are still a few beacons of local media that are staying true to the mission.
Yellow Scene Magazine may not be a national publication, but we have been around 20 years as an Independent in Boulder County. We cover arts, entertainment, news, politics, social issues, education, healthcare, science, oil & gas, elections, food and drink, cannabis, and whatever else we think is worthy to talk about. We are proudly wide awake.
We have won over 160 awards for Excellence in Journalism since our inception in 2000 and have grown to the largest distributed publication in the region. Not bad for an Indie who has self-financed all the way, but it also means we are kind of demanding and generally broke. After all, we are staying true to what we do. You won’t find a single “Native Advertising” article in our pages—ever.
We encourage writers to find their Voice. Factually based, of course, but you have a voice and are here to communicate it. You are not afraid of research (yep, it comes with the territory) and not afraid of direction. We are cranky, always broke, getting old, and we are picky. If this sounds like the ideal writing gig, then we are looking for a few true journalists who are as passionate as we are.
If out of state, then please indicate how you go about researching your subjects to get that insider’s view.
Our Media Kit will give you the scoop, but reading our archives can be your first assignment.
