I've been bummed all day. Didn't think it would bother me so much! Fact is, even though we subscribed, I stopped reading the physical paper a couple of years ago. I read all my news digitally. Necessary evolution phase? Still sucks.

I've seen it all now! The Beatles, Stones, Sex Pistols, gaypride S.F. '77 now this. We still didn't get the hovercraft vehicles though, I guess 'All things must Pass" George Harrison.

Sad indeed! Can the post now use the "ROCKYMOUNTAIN NEWS" name? I like that name better. More shwing to it.

Definately a sad day; I liked the Rock much more than the Post. It was much more reader friendly! I will probably cancel my subscription all together. RIP Rocky

The Wrong paper died. The Denver Pest is clueless to any Development going on in downtown. The Crocky Mtn. News had some idea of what is going on. Ken, we need you even more now as a source of news regarding downtown and development in the core city area. Thanks…..I'll miss the Crocky Mountain News.

What's even more disappointing to me than the mere fact of its disappearance (and that's bad enough–I was somewhat teary-eyed all day long on Friday) is that the Post didn't hire John Rebchook or Mary Voelz Chandler, my two favorite writers at the RMN.

It was the Rocky Mountain News who published the first published known arrest of my g-grandfather, Jefferson Randolph Smith II in 1885.
It was the Rocky Mountain News who published the story that gave Jefferson the alias of "Soapy" Smith.
It was the Rocky Mountain News who declared war on "Soapy" Smith and fought for 11 years to rid the city of his presence after Soapy beat and nearly killed News editor John Arkins.
It was the Rocky Mountain News who unknowingly hired "Soapy's" son, Jefferson Randolph Smith III in the 1920's and no one on the paper's staff ever became the wiser.
It was the Rocky Mountain News whom I thought would last forever.
