This week we speak with Allison Barlow Hess, a BYU grad who reported at KSL for a dozen years, then spent another decade teaching budding journalists at Weber State University and, finally, since 2010 has been the school’s director of public relations. Along the way, Allison spent two years as Utah Chapter board chair of the Society of Professional Journalists and was a longtime op-ed columnist for the Standard-Examiner.
