Rocky Mountain News closes

If there's any major casualty of the loss of interest in mainstream papers, it looks like the Rocky Mountain News in Denver, Colorado, is just that. They're closing now, after almost 150 years in publication.

What else could this suggest? That even Scripps-Howard News Service, the communications corporation that owns them, is having financial problems of its own. I wonder just how many staffers have been let off at their division, and just how many nationally syndicated articles they distribute have had to be cancelled as a result?

I won't be missing the RMN, if they've ever resorted to the kind of leftism I've grown to find distasteful. I won't be surprised if more newspapers like them will soon follow on the trail of cancellation, as the public continues to lose interest in MSM outlets that refuse to do any real service for them.

About me

  • I'm Avi Green
  • From Jerusalem, Israel
  • I was born in Pennsylvania in 1974, and moved to Israel in 1983. I also enjoyed reading a lot of comics when I was young, the first being Fantastic Four. I maintain a strong belief in the public's right to knowledge and accuracy in facts. I like to think of myself as a conservative-style version of Clark Kent. I don't expect to be perfect at the job, but I do my best.
