Abstract
In this note we consider versions of both Ricci and sectional curvature pinching for Riemannian manifolds with density. In the Ricci curvature case the main result implies a diameter estimate that is new even for compact shrinking Ricci solitons. In the case of sectional curvature we prove a new sphere theorem.
