From the SLT editorial:

We might have headed off omicron with a herd immunity-level of vaccinations, but that would have required a vaccination mandate, which our leaders refused. Instead, we get, “No one could have seen this coming.” That is patently untrue. They were told what to do, and they refused.

Were Utah a truly civilized place, the governor’s next move would be to find a way to mandate the kind of mass vaccination campaign we should have launched a year ago, going as far as to deploy the National Guard to ensure that people without proof of vaccination would not be allowed, well, anywhere.

The base instincts of the left never seems to “evolve”.

Salt Lake Tribune? No thanks we already have plenty of toilet paper.

“Salt Lake City is a lovely place.” You would really love the smog/inversions northern Utah gets this time of year. If you missed out on the air in 1970s LA this is your chance to experience it. And two high school freshmen just got killed by a 14 year old from a rival high school.

“Having lived in the more conservative Southeast lately, I’ve been rather surprised to find that the urban papers are just as leftist, perhaps even more leftist.”

Why? Doesn’t surprise me one bit. I cannot stand having to watch our side go through its learning curve. In this case, does she think they pull people off of farms and ranches to work for the local newspapers. So, lady, it don’t work that way. They ALL come out of the SAME colleges, with the same degrees (Journalism or Communications)...so why should they act any different if they end up in Salt Lake, or Augusta, GA, rather than Baltimore?

This IS NOT difficult to figure out - but you do have to put 5 minutes into it.

The researchers in South Africa who discovered "omicron" were very careful to note that it was a very mild variant, and not much to be concerned about.

We see what happened when the Leftist media got ahold of it.

Encourage everyone you know from the area to unsubscribe from the SLT if they have not already. My first cousin unsubscribed because of their continued r support for Romney. The Paper has been left wing for a long time but only paper with local news and they control major local online news.

The SLC Tribune editorial board is composed of Knowledge Class elites that have no real connection with the people of their community

Paul Huntsman, chairman, owner of the Tribune and member of the super wealthy Huntsman family that have opposed Trump and the working class

Lauren Gustus, former editor of Sacramento Bee newspaper chain in California

Dave Patel - academic political “scientist” Utah State University

Michelle Quist - RINO republican attorney

George Pile - opinion editor, journalist

Editorial boards should reflect the community. Where is there a member of the Tribune Board like, say, Eric Hoffer, who was a writer and longshoreman? Or a member of the religious community who is not a member of the Knowledge Class?
