    Wanted to call attention to the front page of the final edition of the Rocky Mountain News, which was published this morning. I thought it was a really nice touch that they mimicked the very first issue of the paper from April 1859 — nearly 150 years ago:

    More about their departure, including a nicely made 20-minute video, is here.

    This is just the first of probably around a dozen major dailies that will publish their final issue this year, I expect.

    My condolences and best wishes to all who worked there.
