Stop the Press

Another paper goes under:

AP: The Rocky Mountain News will publish its last edition Friday.

Owner E.W. Scripps Co. announced on the newspaper's Web site Thursday that its search for a buyer for the paper was unsuccessful.

"Today the Rocky Mountain News, long the leading voice in Denver, becomes a victim of changing times in our industry and huge economic challenges," Scripps CEO Rich Boehne said.


Sad in a sentimental way, I suppose, but that's the way it's going to go from here on out. For the time being, clicking is free while the newsstand isn't.
