The Salt Lake Tribune to consider removing booking photos

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — The Salt Lake Tribune has announced that it will start taking requests from people who want their names or images removed from previous coverage. The move comes as newsrooms across the country are reckoning with the potential long-term consequences of their reporting, especially for people of color. The newspaper said it spent two months developing new guidance and procedure for takedown decisions, which are already in effect. Booking photos under the guidance may be removed and case updates may be added, but full stories will rarely be removed.
