One of the first things I noticed about the Denver Post was the different things it covers compared to the local newspapers of Chicago and Milwaukee that I traditionally read. The Winter X Games (which typically have but a small article buried in the sports section in the Chicago Tribune) were worthy of the DenverPost.com homepage, as they are held in Colorado.
An article about the lack of snow and its effects on the skiing season also was featured on the homepage, something that is ordinary I'm sure for people in Denver, but something I just am not used to seeing covered prominently.
And of course, Tim Tebow was featured on the homepage. If I had been covering the Denver Post last semester, I can only imagine how much Tim Tebow I would have been reading about. Did you know there is a brewery in Colorado that has started a "Tebrew," which a picture of a him Tebowing on the the beer label?
However, the Post does not only focus on local issues. I was rather impressed with its sections dealing with national and international news, including its political coverage. Politics will be a very important and hot-button issue in the coming months, and I am confident that the Post has the tools necessary to fully cover this news.
