Humanity’s access to information increases by the day, and the formats in which we consume information are changing just as rapidly. While traditional forms of media like local newspapers, long the bastion of community responsibility and awareness, are forced to shed reporters and completely restructure their business practices, emerging forms of media must step into the breach.
About the website
The Davis Voice is dedicated to giving the citizens of Davis the resources and space to participate in the ongoing experiment that we call community. For over two years, we’ve become a trusted source for Davisites to become informed and entertained with news and opinion about timely public policy matters. Recently, we’ve been providing unique, live coverage of City Council meetings and other City Commission meetings. What’s more, we apply a liberal seasoning of nightlife happenings, cultural opportunities, thoughtful commentary, fervent pleas for sanity and a little bit of funny.
Target Demographics
The information presented on the Davis Voice is crafted to fairly represent all sides of a public policy or news event. Comments on posts are closely followed by our editorial staff; uncivil attacks are discouraged and ultimately removed. This high standard of quality attracts a broad range of educated citizens. Also, our simple and clean format is accessible by people with all levels of computer experience. Our UC Davis interns and our nightlife posts draw the attention of UC Davis students. Also, an expanding segment of our readers seem to be parents of UC Davis students who regularly read The Davis Voice to stay apprised of local events.
