5280 is a monthly magazine and website that
covers dining, entertainment, culture, arts, lifestyle, and politics in Denver,
Colorado. Their digital editor is looking for pitches for their website. They
are always accepting pitches in all categories. Right now, they are “looking to
bulk up in a few areas: politics (esp. at the city level), news (localized
takes on national topics of interest count!), health, business, and education.”
They would “love to see fresh ideas on how to continue to cover COVID-19, the
Black Lives Matter movement, and the upcoming election.” Every pitch should be timely
and localized (to Denver / Colorado). They strongly encourage writers of
diverse backgrounds to pitch. They prefer writers who are local to
Colorado. According to payment reports, they pay up to $1.25 per word. If
interested, contact erin@5280.com. For
