I thought the Deseret News was the designated source of news for the Mormon faithful. During the current LDS general conference sessions, The Tribune has devoted a large portion of its paper to Mormon news and stories. Also, the coverage has not been confined to the local news section but has dominated the “so-called” main national section.
If a person desires that degree of in-depth Mormon news coverage, then the Deseret News is your paper but for the rest of us, The Tribune needs to be Utah’s independent voice, as it claims to be.

Free to read doesn’t mean free to produce. Our reporters show up every day to ask hard questions and hold powerful institutions to account. That work takes resources.
