They will probably auction them off at some point.

Any idea on what's going to happen with all of the newspaper vending boxes? I'd very much like to have one to sit in my garage or basement.

We get it delivered at home. Tomorrow is the last day. We're told that we'll get the Denver Post delivered for the remainder of our subscription. I really liked the RMN's book style format.

The Rocky Mountain News publishes its last paper tomorrow.

Boehne told staffers that the Rocky was the victim of a terrible economy and an upheaval in the newspaper industry.

"Denver can't support two newspapers any longer," Boehne told staffers, some of whom cried at the news. "It's certainly not good news for you, and it's certainly not good news for Denver."

The Rocky has been in a joint operating agreement with The Denver Post since 2001. The arrangement approved by the U.S. Justice Department allowed the papers to share all business services, from advertising to printing, to preserve two editorial voices in the community.

The closure of the Rocky will mean Denver will have just one major newspaper, like the vast majority of American cities today.
