“Dream Team” launches Salt Lake news site

A group of former anchors and reporters is teaming up in Salt Lake City to launch a new web-based initiative called Salt TV. The journalists used to be competitors at three stations. Now they’re colleagues in the effort, which has some startup money behind it. Salt TV (at the awkward URL salttvnet.com) is betting that people will pay to see the folks who used to deliver their news every day. The site, in fact, features its talent not only in a Mount Rushmore-style header, but also along the right rail. The tagline is “The Utah Journalists You Know And Trust.” There are 15 of them working on the site – a heavy staff load as these things go.
