This off-site session will feature a conversation with Gregory L. Moore, who has been editor of The
Denver Post since 2002, a period that coincided with the culmination of a newspaper war with the nowdefunct Rocky Mountain News. We’ll also take a look back to the late 19th century and the early days of
the Post, when its lurid content gave rise to the moniker the “bucket of blood.” The Post’s owners then
were Gilmer Bonfils and Harry Tammen, and Time magazine once said they “stirred up a brand of
journalistic dust in Denver’s rarefied air which made Hearst look stuffy.” The Denver Post is a 5-minute
walk from the conference site.
