Another Veteran Journalist Exits Denver Post

•  
• by: Colorado Pols

In a note circulated earlier this afternoon, business reporter Mark Jaffe, an experienced journalist with particular expertise covering oil and gas issues in Colorado, announced he will take the buy-out offered by management of the rapidly-declining Denver Post. Prior to working for the Post, Jaffe was a business correspondent for Bloomberg News and the Philadelphia Inquirer.

Jaffe joins veteran political report Lynn Bartels in exiting the Post, and with the buy-out process still underway, they may not be the last. We’ll miss their contributions on the issues affecting our state, and hope their replacements–if any, and for whichever outlet–are able to fill the considerable void left by their departures.
