The Colorado Daily was a newspaper published in Boulder, Colorado, by Prairie Mountain Publishing Co. LLC, a unit of MediaNews Group. Its final issue was published on September 17, 2022.[1] The Daily was operated out of the offices of Boulder's Daily Camera newspaper.[2] Originally the student newspaper of the University of Colorado, the Daily became independent in 1970 and underwent several ownership changes since 2001, coming under the control of the Camera, its former competitor, when it was purchased by the E.W. Scripps Co. in 2005.[3] The newspaper and its website, coloradodaily.com, continued to focus much of their coverage on the university.

First published on September 13, 1892, the Daily has been said to be the oldest free daily newspaper in the U.S.[4] In 2000 and 2001, the newspaper won several national journalism awards for its investigative reporting.[5][6][7][8]
