My favorite part of the article:
Here's the best part of the article:

Quote:
When Corroon unveiled his plan, he declared it a "good deal for our citizens."
"Hopefully the citizens will realize it's all tourist money and it's not a giveaway," he said.
yet still, later in the article you have this idiot:
Quote:
"It's terrible. We're taxed to death already. Let Checketts pay for it. They have lots of money. Why do they always ask us to pay?"

That stood out to me too. The Trib wouldn't see it to point out the inaccuracy to the "citizen" but "merely report the facts".

Our favorite news reporter came up to me after the ground breaking and asked my reaction to the event.

My response, "I'm so happy to have this stadium and to know not one cent of it is coming from tax payers in the county." he asked why I was so happy and i told him about my front row seat and keeping the team here. guess which quote made the trib?

RSL season-ticket holder Chris Enger of Herriman is more excited about what the deal does do: Keep the team here.
"It's fantastic," he said. "It means I get to keep my front-row seat"
