Cannot reliably zoom
When I read a RTD articles on my iPhone 12 and try to zoom, the app unzooms by itself. It then goes into a full screen mode and I can’t zoom at all. Very frustrating.

Too Liberal and not enough local investigative journalism
The RTD since it was sold years ago by the Bryan Family has become more liberal. Paul Michael Williams is the most liberal biased journalist with no counter balance on staff. The same for Jeff Shapiro who leans solidly Left a majority of the time. There needs to be more balance on the OP/ED Page. Also there is not enough true investigative journalism locally in the City and surrounding Governments. There is a lot of corruption in regards to spending, incompetence, and oversight at City Hall especially. Ex Mayor Stoney has gotten a pass in regards to his failures and is running a ghost campaign for LT Governor and nobody is asking him any questions. The Water Plant fiasco is one example of his malfeasance.
