The intrepid reporting staff at the Denver Post has uncovered an egg shortage in Colorado.

And in their block-busting story complete with a compelling click-bait headline, they proclaim to tell us what shoppers need to know.

The big reveal?

Shoppers need to know they will have to pay more money for eggs, because there’s an egg shortage in Colorado.

But wait! There’s more!

Austin Vincent of the Colorado Farm Bureau offered the Denver Post a solution to the whole mess, which was set into motion when avian influenza crashed head-on into “bad legislative policy” signed into law by Gov. Polis.

“The legislature and the governor have the power to fix the issue, even if temporarily, to help relieve some stress on the supply chain,” Vincent said.

Well Hallelujah!

And what, pray tell, must the legislature and the governor do to fix the issue?

The Denver Post neglected to tell shoppers what they need to know about that.
