Sad Day in Denver

In a bit of shocking news, the E.W. Scripps Co. (you know? the name on your degree when you graduate) has announced that Denver's Rocky Mountain News, a leader in quality journalism for years, will publish its final edition on Friday.

You can follow the story at the paper's website, here, as well as on Editor and Publisher's website.

This is the third major publication in the past several months to announce an end to its print edition, but this one goes much further, ceasing all operations.

We will have the chance to hear a presentation from Detroit News recruiter Walter Middlebrook about his paper’s plan to cut back home delivery and boost digital readership at Regional Conference in April - you can sign up now!
