It’s bad enough what the vulture capitalists at Alden Global Capital have done to the Denver Post, to its readers and to journalism as we once knew it. That’s $5 million that would at least have paid the one-time, severance-pay price for the laid-off city workers, which, coincidentally, cost the city, yes, $5 million. Here’s the thing: The Denver Post logo may still stand across the top of the 11-story building, but it’s just a mirage. I know something about the building, which opened in 2006, having worked there for both the Rocky Mountain News and the Denver Post. According to CBS Colorado, which had filed an open records request from the city, Denver has stopped making its $166,000 monthly payment.
