The Utah Investigative Journalism Project is a non-profit that provides public-service reporting and education throughout the state. They partner with publications to publish in-depth stories holding those in power accountable. Today on the news, we speak with founder Eric Peterson, who was recently in Moab. Plus, nearly 400 tourism industry groups sent a letter to the National Park Service wanting changes to reservation systems. And, a fire broke out at Hoover Dam on Tuesday morning – but was quickly put out.
