Final Edition For 'Rocky Mountain News'

Denver's Rocky Mountain News published its last issue Friday. It is one of the first major newspapers to end publication because of financial troubles. But it will likely not be the last: The Seattle Post Intelligencer and the San Francisco Chronicle are also at risk.

Gil Rudawsky, who was deputy metro editor of the Rocky Mountain News, talks about the newspaper's demise with host Madeleine Brand.
