Op Ed on immigration raid
Monday, March 10th, 2008The Daily Herald didn’t take the article, but the Salt Lake Tribune, a paper with much wider (state-wide) circulation, ran a revised version on Sunday, March 9. The difference? I submitted the first version a full week after the raid hit the papers. I submitted the second version the same day that the papers reported the passage of SB-81, an anti-immigration bill, and I made some revisions to tie the article in to this event. Timeliness counts. (Also, I toned things down in a couple of spots.)
Here’s the link to the article on the Salt Lake Tribune website. It’s generated quite a bit of reader response on the Trib’s website.
