often took such a hard anti-LDS stance.... especially the opinion pages and religion articles. The BYU, Jazz and RSL articles were generally fine, but I didn't feel like supporting the bitter bias everywhere else. Just report the news.

A lot of the problems were his editors writing the headlines.

Copy desk at the Trib has some real issues.

With exception of headlines and a few tweets, Jay was fine.

His zeal to find and publisize honor code issues made me angry. In press

I prefer him to Monson and it isn't even close

The Trib has an obvious anti-church and anti-BYU bias.

Agreed. Jay was just ok, but the Trib is an anti-Mormon newspaper

They are anti-Mormon because they publish stories

Do our research. This dates back more than 100 years.

You seem to be calling for specific examples of their anti-mormon actions.

So the Tribune has never published articles positive

Is this, from today’s Tribune, anti-Mormon?

UNHuskerCoug

5/15/18 10:32pm

Or perhaps this is anti-Mormon, a piece from today

UNHuskerCoug

5/15/18 10:37pm

So a few objective articles on the church must mean there is no agenda?

Stop defending the Tribs anti-mormon encouraging anonymous comments policy:

Because Jefe won't let them onto CB? Trib staff have to do

No, that's not what I'm saying. I'll repost this since you failed to read it:

You don't think a private company should censor rampant bigotry?

Jay was the best in the market at covering BYU

He was certainly good at covering things (like a wet blanket)

what's odd about Jay, is how coaches interacted with him. They'd always call him by his first name
