Letter: Typos and spaces in words undermine Tribune’s e-edition

The Salt Lake Tribune's e-edition on Thursday, Jan. 28, 2021.

We are subscribers and a monthly donor.

When reading the e-edition, which I do every day, I am continually frustrated by the constant typos in many articles. For example, in a recent article on the state budget discussions in the Legislature, the numbers quoted seem to have no decimal points. There seems to be a blank space where they might belong, but we are left to puzzle out the real meanings, rather than just read the article. Also, there are words that are broken apart with spaces, again leaving us readers to puzzle out the meaning before proceeding with reading.

For a co mpany that is u sing techn ology to try and right the s hip, this should be embarr ass ing.

Larry Hoffmann, Holladay
