Prairie Mountain Media

Prairie Mountain Media is an American publishing company owned by Digital First Media. It owns a series of newspapers most notably The Denver Post. Digital First Media is owned by Alden Global Capital which has sharply cut costs by reducing the number of journalists working on many of its newspapers.

The company acquired Lehman Communications in 2011  and the Greeley Tribune from Swift Communications in 2020.

In June 2024, the company announced it will shutter its printing plant in Berthoud and move production of its papers to The Denver Post production facility. As a result, 40 employees will be let go.
