Congratulations my dear Rocky Mountain News. I like the new design and format. Only one suggestion that I have wanted to make for years. As I got older (now 80) my eyesight became weaker and I thought it would serve the older generations if the size of type were increased from 9 pt. (I think) to lets say 12 or perhaps 14 pt. Now you would ask, how could we do that and get all the news in that is necessary and certainly we wouldn’t want to take away advertising space.
Well, I have a suggested solution to both of those problems. I find so much redundancy in every article that writers get carried away with their own self worth. Consider cutting 15% of each article and see how much space you have to enlarge the print size. You know, the Boomers are coming and getting older too and their vision will also diminish.
Now that I have said all of that, I suspect you wish I had just stayed with the congrats stuff and left the rest alone. Alas, I have to rely on getting my Rocky via the internet which is just great too.
