Failed to respond here. As the one person who raised nearly all the philanthropic funds in 2020, far leftist are no where near as generous as conservatives. And volunteer“membership” models are not as reliable and sticky as subscribers. Totally reckless to dismantle 30,000 subscribers.

Anyone in the newsroom want to place a friendly bet how this will shake out in 3 years?

Getting the journalism of The Salt Lake Tribune has always cost something to readers. Not anymore, as The Tribune is making its daily work free to anyone. Here’s what to know about accessing Utah’s nonprofit news. https://t.co/IL2r7wsrml

@NormieUtah @bikelakecity It’s called journalism. Dealt with this for 8 years.

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

@mabtito @insureutah @Utah_Football @georgewrighster @UUtah He’s not the authoritative opinion. Just someone who took time to look at publicly available information and gave very thoughtful analysis. Don’t have to agree with it, but it’s much more informative than the shallow analysis of “it’s private equity so it’s bad.”

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

Jason, just a bit of advice - would recommend asking Trib to support you taking exec education classes at the business school. Profits do not equate to genocide, and as I told them many times - staffs needs to retire their “cloak of layoffs” and provide smart reporting. Public deserves better.

NEWS: Utah's athletic department has begun the process of laying off select employees as part of its PE deal.

"The discontinuation of the individual positions in those units through a reduction in force (RIF), to be followed by CBP’s hiring process."

Trust has been lost with too many institutions, particularly in journalism where I witnessed it first hand. And the constant anti-business/capitalist drumbeat on this story, and every other, is nauseating. I’ve read some good analysis from local attorneys, and national sports podcasters on this emerging narrative. Lots of important questions to consider. But the Trib has to do better.

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

Can someone please explain to these socialist the difference between a kW, MW, and GW! Data centers are engineered and built by MW, not GW. And 9GW?!?! How much longer are we going to let shark guy play with us? Maybe we propose 25 Empire State Buildings in downtown SLC.

[The Salt Lake Tribune @sltrib]

The future of data centers in Utah was a hot topic in the Democratic primary election debate over the party's nomination in the race for Utah's new 1st Congressional District. https://t.co/zW3bNL4SJZ

@NormieUtah My own newsroom ran and cried to WaPost when I did their homework for them.

@wanderingdave Let’s start with journalist. That’s their job. Most elected officials take their cues from journalism.

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

First step to repair journalism is mandate every journalism student take an accounting and finance class.

[The Salt Lake Tribune @sltrib]

Asked about the possible impact of the data center campus on the Great Salt Lake, EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin said, “I’m not coming here today to opine and place judgment like that.” https://t.co/qgbPKf7QOI

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

@JoeldWright Don’t know how many times I tried to get our team at The Tribune to educate the public on this matter, but they always refused. Couldn’t move off zero scape, and brown lawns.

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

@NormieUtah That one will always hurt.

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

Go manage payroll from P/L that you generate, then come back and talk.

[Bernie Sanders @BernieSanders]

Mr. Bezos: Let's have that debate.

Under my 5% billionaires wealth tax, we'd:

-Give $12K to a working family of 4
-Expand Medicare for dental, vision, hearing
-Guarantee universal childcare
-Raise starting teacher pay to $60K

And you'd still be worth $269 billion after taxes.

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

Maybe ask the question, who is going to fund $100 billion? Next, who is going to fund, and commission engineering plans for a 9GW power plant/data center, which has never been built on the planet. Can’t answer impact until this is complete. This whole charade is so absurd.

Finally Jeff. You’ve been quiet for too long. Time to unleash the kraken and start writing WaPost editorials. “Jeff Bezos torches Mamdani for pouring $43B into mismanaged NYC schools” https://t.co/zxpLd9h85x

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

So do we use Trump’s $1b to buy water rights?

[Paul Huntsman @pchuntsman]

~6% of water use is for outdoor residential. Brown lawns won’t move the needle. What, if any levers do we have on flood irrigation, and agriculture. Honest question, not criticism.
