The Colorado Freedom of Information Coalition will present Gregory Moore, former editor of The Denver Post, with the Jean Otto Friend of Freedom Award at a fundraising luncheon at noon on Wednesday, Nov. 16, 2016, at the Denver Consistory, 1370 Grant St., Denver.
The award recognizes someone for sustained and/or significant contributions to open government and First Amendment causes in Colorado. It honors the legacy of Jean Otto, a long-time editor and reader representative at the Rocky Mountain News who founded the CFOIC in 1987 and was a tireless advocate for First Amendment and freedom-of-information rights.
