The Rocky Mountain News, 1859-2009

Today was the final edition of the Rocky Mountain News, less than 2 months shy of its 150th anniversary. 4 Pulitzers in a decade. Lots of talented people. All gone in a day.
Already happened in Madison, Wis.; on the way in Detroit and Seattle.

From the Rocky's front page today:
"We part in sorrow because we know so much lies ahead that will be worth telling and we will not be there to do so."
