Hailed as a phoenix rising from the ashes of the Rocky Mountain News, the Rocky Mountain Independent, the second venture launched by former News journalists, will no longer produce original content as of today.
Subscribers to the site were told that the website’s owners could no longer support producing new content with their current revenues.
Its previous incarnation – InDenver Times, which fell short of subscription level targets after two months of life – will continue to run as a local news aggregation service with some contributed content.
