Death of a Newspaper

The Rocky Mountain News, 1859-2009

Friday, February 27, 2009 the Rocky Mountain News is no more. Today is a very sad day not only for the editors who have written for the The Rocky Mountain News for years, but for the readers and residents of Denver, Colorado. The diverse attributes that readers get from having more then one paper is very important. It's important to the culture, to the livihood of the staff as well as for the people of Denver. More people don't venture out of their comfort zone, that's when the Rocky News Mountain News comes in to take you to places you never dreamed of.   Who could have imaged that this would happen? I mean yes, it's the 21st Century there's the internet, blogs like this one, but to say Denver, CO cannot manage two newspaper is just a simple excuse of giving up.

It's so hard, to say goodbye to yesterday.
