Good reporting and writing
I love the in-depth reporting on substantive issues; it is important that in the media, there is a voice like the Deseret News, shedding light and a correct perspective. I also appreciate the thoughtful analysis from the editorial team. So many papers and news outlets post knee-jerk stories to complex problems and incite greater calamity that the original issue should have created. A stable and calm-headed voice like the Deseret News is needed. I would like the DN to include the option to comment on articles from within the app, instead of on social media.

Excellent source of local and national news
I live in Washington state but have ties to Utah having been a resident there for many years. I don’t watch the news anymore, but I do find the DN app a much more palatable way to stay up to date with national news as well as the local news and events. I love the editorials as well as the faith section. There is a nice balance between the feel good stories, the family life section and the grim realities of world news. Excellent journalism and reporting. Your staff are top notch. It’s the only app I read for news.

Great Content - Comment Section Needs Work
Every paper has bias, whether it’s the Salt Lake Tribune, Chicago Tribune, Deseret News, whoever. The Deseret news has been as objective as anyone. The only problem is the comment section being monitored excessively and in a manner that is too controlling. Yes, the Deseret News has the legal right to do this. But sometimes there is a difference between what you have a right to do and what is the right thing to do. Fix that problem and you would get five stars for me.
