There's been a rash of closings (or threatened closings) of some 
notable newspapers recently:

Rocky Mountain News (in business 150 years)

San Francisco Chronicle (in business 144 years)

Seattle Post-Intelligencer (in business 146 years)

Makes one wonder what other changes are in store for the 
newspaper industry, the publishing industry, and the information 
industry in general.
