The Salt Lake Tribune seeks to become a nonprofit organization. Riverton declares itself a ‘sanctuary city for the unborn.’ And testing backlogged rape kits leads to 105 new suspects.
At 9 a.m. on Friday, Salt Lake Tribune senior managing editor Matt Canham, reporter Taylor Stevens, and columnist George Pyle join KCPW guest host Marcie Young Cancio to talk about the week’s top stories. Every Friday at 9 a.m., stream “Behind the Headlines” at kcpw.org, or tune in to KCPW 88.3 FM or Utah Public Radio for the broadcast. Join the live conversation by calling (801) 355-TALK.
