Rocky Mountain News publishes final paper on Friday
Denver's Rocky Mountain News is closing. This is a very sad day for journalism and news. The news in Denver will no longer be the same. The good thing out of this is that the Denver Post is still in business.
Newspapers and local television news are on the brink. I hope somebody figures out a solution.

1st Amendment is under attack by Sharpton
Rev. Al Sharpton apparently believes that the First Amendment only applies to himself and not to others. He is now attacking News Corp., the parent company of the New York Post.
Sharpton is calling on the city of New York to stop advertising in the newspaper and also asking for the FCC to review the waiver extended to NewsCorp., which allows it to own more than one television station and newspaper in the same city.
Here is a review of the First Amendment:
On top of this, the Second Amendment is under attack and has been taken away in some places in the United States. Banning guns is illegal. Just read the Bill of Rights once in a while to know what it under attack.

Philadelphia Newspapers L.L.C. files for bankruptcy
Philadelphia Newspapers L.L.C., which owns the Philadelphia Inquirer, Philadelphia Daily News and Philly.com has filed for bankruptcy protection yesterday to restructure its $390 million debt.
The company says the Chapter 11 bankruptcy will not interrupt its daily operations.
The Philadelphia Inquirer was once owned by Knight Ridder before the company went defunct.
I, for one, hope that Philadelphia Newspapers L.L.C. gets through bankruptcy because the city deserves a newspaper. At least keep the award-winning Philadelphia Inquirer.
If newspapers, and in this case even internet, are doing this bad, just think about local television news. TV is not all roses.
