The Salt Lake City Deseret News, whose reporters viciously attacked LGF for pointing out that they deliberately concealed information about the Bosnian Muslim who committed mass murder in the Trolley Square shopping mall, is in serious trouble today: Deseret News to cut 35 staff positions; revamp operations.

In the wake of falling subscriptions and advertising revenue, the Deseret News is shedding 35 staffers by mid-July.

“There is no question it is a huge punch in the gut to everyone’s morale,” said Editor Joe Cannon on Thursday afternoon following a staff meeting.

The newspaper, owned by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, will rethink its operation from top to bottom, Cannon said.

“We will become more local, more online, and more Mormon,” he said.

The paper’s revenues declined 32 percent since January, according to the Deseret News, as advertisers sought out other media, including the Internet.
