The Denver Newspaper Guild attempted to buy an advertisement in The Denver Post stating the Guild’s position on the latest job cuts announced for The Post. We were initially given the price of $6,450 for a quarter-page ad to run on Tues. March 20. Today we received word that the newspaper will not run the ad.
