whenever there is a police report, the media gets notified. that's how it works in the newspaper. I have checked both the newspapers in estes park (online) but didn't see any news on the missing girl. it could be that they haven't posted it online yet or they just simply ignored the news, however the latter one is highly unlikely as this event is a very newsworthy event. So, I'm pretty sure the media knows about this, at least at local level. We can certainly inform the big metro media, especially the television.
