Phillip Anschutz To Bring Back The Rocky Mountain News?

850KOA had a story the the Colorado billionaire is looking into bringing back the tabloid. I would love for Denver to become a two paper town again but the Denver Post is up for sale, why not buy that instead?

Thomas Sowell: There are no solutions, just trade-offs.

Why invest in a dying media at all? How many GenXers are going to be reading paper in 20 years? Paper products will probably be banned by the all powerful EPA by then anyway.

The left is angry because they are now being judged by the content of their character and not by the color of their skin.

Print is getting a bit of a rebound and the Denver Post has pissed off a lot of their customers. Local papers are being bought up by the smart money on Wall Street.

Update: This might just be a scheme by Phil to bring the price down on the Denver Post already for sale.

Denver Post has so tarnished its name that I don't think it is a brand worth buying and I would be surprised if Anschutz was willing to purchase a company which had done so much to reduce its own value in addition to what the market has done to reduce the value of daily newspapers.

That and the Post is a broadsheet, not a tabloid, format which, IMNTBHO, makes it harder to read.

But it does work better for lining large bird cages.

And both make good fire starter.

The silent majority will be silent no more.
