As others have stated the newspaper business as we know it is dying. Distribution on a physical paper is below 25% of the numbers they had a few years ago. I'm sure that the numbers for the DP and the BDC are in line with those figures.
The new revenue streams for the newspaper organizations that are succeeding is on-line content. The Post website is one of the most visited sites in Colorado, how they translate that into revenue is a different story that many of these companies are still grappling with.
The result is though that the newspapers are no longer the source for breaking news or even the details. Other web sources have taken that role from them.
They are moving more and more into blogs and opinion with columnist. The role of the traditional beat writer is shrinking away.
Ringo is a part of a dying breed. It seems like he knows what is happening and combined with the Buffs being terrible has simply lost interest. The other sports reporters (not columnist) are in kind of the same situation. They are reporting on things that people already know and even if they do a good job can't generate much interest and enthusiasm, so they don't worry about it to much.
