Behind the Headlines
Fridays from 9 a.m - 10 a.m.
From its politics to its public lands to polygamy, Utah has always been fertile ground for news. Here on UPR, The Salt Lake Tribune presents a fresh way for Utahns to process the headlines. Behind the Headlines, a live weekly broadcast, examines the week’s top local stories through the eyes of reporters on the beat.
Hosted by UPR's Tom Williams, a rotating panel of the state’s top journalists explain what’s happening in the Beehive State along with the hows and whys.
Listeners can join the discussion by sending questions to @upraccess on Twitter or emailing [email protected].
Behind the Headlines is brought to you through a partnership with KCPW and The Salt Lake Tribune.
