Letter: The new Sunday Tribune is terrific

FILE - Copies of The Salt Lake Tribune newspaper are shown on April 20, 2016, 2020, in Salt Lake City. The Salt Lake Tribune will stop printing a daily newspaper after nearly 150 years at the end of the year and move to a weekly print edition. The newspaper reported Monday, Oct. 26, 2020, the change won't result in cuts to the newsroom staff, but nearly 160 people involved with printing and delivering the daily paper will be laid off.

I’ve been a Salt Lake Tribune reader for almost the eighty years I have been alive. I have had both praise and criticism on many of the paper’s pages due to politics. The Tribune is part of my life and pleasure.

I have joined many of the older readers in missing the fresh printed Trib in my kitchen every morning. I have also been fearful we would lose the paper to the new economics of publishing.

When The Trib went digital, I fretted and was forced to warm to my computer. But I knew it was justified economics.

Was there any compensation in the new paper?

Any payback for doing my part?

I want to scream from my roof that there is journalistic newness and a terrific new Sunday Tribune. So keep delivering deeper and more meaningful articles, two pages of colorful comics, great summary in the sports section, strong obituaries in color to honor our dead, and an absence of bias but fearlessly pursuing the truth.
