Odes to the P-I, Rocky Mountain News



I don't really have much to say about these videos. One chronicles the end of the Seattle Post-Intelligencer in print, though it continues online.

The other focuses on Denver's Rocky Mountain News, which remains online in a state of suspended animation. (Former staffers of the Rocky Mountain News have just launched a new online news site called INDenverTimes.com.)

Sadly, these videos speak for themselves. They are "must-see" if you are a fan of newspapers. Unfortunately, I fear they are not the last of their kind.
