DENVER (AP) -- The Rocky Mountain News will publish its last edition Friday.
Owner E.W. Scripps Co. announced on the newspaper's Web site Thursday that its search for a buyer for the paper was unsuccessful.
"Today the Rocky Mountain News, long the leading voice in Denver, becomes a victim of changing times in our industry and huge economic challenges," Scripps CEO Rich Boehne said.
Scripps said the paper lost $16 million last year.
The Rocky Mountain News would have celebrated their 150th birthday in a couple of months. This story will be repeated in towns large and small around the country.
