It’s March 20 already? What happened. Oh, yeah, right. This: http://www.indenvertimes.com/

Many see what happened here in Denver as the last battle between the Denver Post and the Rocky Mountain News. We here at America’s Fish regard it as the first domino in a long row of bad things to happen to media and democracy in the country in the next year.

Steve Myers at Poynter wrote a piece about the web site IwantmyRocky.com, which we are still maintaining, and InsidetheRockies.com and after talking to now-former Rocky transportation reporter Kevin Flynn and America’s Fish.

While we here at America’s Fish will be the first among those who have made living from them to admit that newspapers have been at times slow to innovate and frustratingly tepid when it comes to covering big issues like politics and the environment, in this culture of job losses and fear of more job losses for a member of the U.S. House of Representatives to champion job losses as partly his doing is just stupid.
