Deseret News: Donations, Actions Raise More Questions About John Swallow's Judgment

After being hammered by the Salt Lake Tribune with near-daily expose'-style stories for a little over a month, our ethically-challenged Attorney General John Swallow now takes a broadside from what we'd expect to be his natural ally, the Deseret News, with a top-notch Dennis Romboy hard-copy edition story this morning, summarizing the litany of errors and missteps which raise questions about "whether he can survive in office," or whether he'll soon be indicted by the U.S. Attorney's Office:

You have to admire the Deseret News for  tjheir skill in publishing  this story. They have managed to give a accounting of the problems faced by Mr. Swallow without once mentioning that the initial story and the follow up reports were orginally published in the Salt Lake Tribune.
