We're A One Newspaper Town Now



On Friday, February 27, 2009, Denver's oldest (and the 21st oldest in the U.S.) newspaper, the Rocky Mountain News ("The Rocky") published it's final edition. The writing had been on the wall for a while now, but it still came as a shock to many people when we saw that final newspaper, with its headline of "Goodbye, Colorado."

Saturday morning, Fox 31 News spent a few hours filming a story for that evening's newscast in our Colfax Avenue store. Watch the video to see our lead buyer, Cathy Langer, talking about the paper. And you can even see me (Joe) working the cash register.

Farewell, Rocky...
