Spirited Media Inc. is a small media company focused on developing new approaches to local journalism. It operates three hyperlocal sites — Billy Penn in Philadelphia, The Incline in Pittsburgh, and Denverite in Denver — each crafted for mobile consumption and aimed at readers under 40, with a distinct city voice. The company presents news through a curated stream that prioritizes the reader's time and user experience and relies heavily on social channels to reach audiences. Beyond digital coverage, Spirited Media aims to strengthen community ties by organizing offline events, typically four to five per month, as part of its approach to local journalism. The company is based in Great Falls, Virginia, and has grown through city-focused outlets, adding Denverite to its portfolio in 2017 after launching Billy Penn in 2014 and expanding into Pittsburgh in 2016. It positions itself within the local journalism landscape as pursuing an alternative model for city reporting that emphasizes local storytelling and community involvement.
