Salt Lake’s KCPW lays off two; CEO cleaning bathrooms

KCPW, the pubradio station in Salt Lake City, has laid off two employees and cut salaries following lax fund-raising drives. CEO and President Ed Sweeney told the Salt Lake Crawler blog that underwriting is fine but individual donations are down. One of the station’s two reporters was let go. Sweeney told Current that he now cleans the station himself–including the bathrooms–saving $400 a month.
