Letter: In the ‘Year of the Woman,’ there are gaps in Tribune’s coverage

(Courtesy Westminster College) Bethami Dobkin has been named Westminster College's new president. Dobkin will be the 19th president and second woman to lead the college.

With reference to the April 24 editorial that extolled four female presidents of Utah’s System of Higher Education and stated “it is the Year of the Woman”:

Do you know there is a Democratic woman candidate for U.S. Senate? Jenny Wilson. To date, hardly any coverage in The Salt Lake Tribune even though the male from Massachusetts is in your paper at least twice a week, including large photos.

Do you know the president-elect for Westminster College is a woman? Bethami Dobkin. She received a small paragraph on the back pages of your paper.

Yes, it is the Year of the Woman — obviously only those chosen by The Salt Lake Tribune.
