Fountain Valley News is a local newspaper based in Fountain, Colorado, serving the Security, Widefield, and Fountain communities with local news and advertising. It began in October 1958 as Security Advertiser, published by Shopper Press, Inc., and grew to become the area’s primary locally owned source for news and community information. It operated as a weekly publication delivered every Wednesday by carrier and mail, and it has a history of female leadership, with Kathryn A. Wiese-Moore serving as owner and publisher since 1994 and family members in senior roles.

The newspaper earned awards from the Colorado Press Association and other local organizations in recognition of its community journalism. Facing financial pressures tied to the COVID-19 era, the publication issued its final edition on December 28, 2022. Since then, volunteers have continued to provide limited local coverage via social media, and the owners have said they are exploring options for an online-only format.
