State Rep. Mike Kennedy, R-Alpine, bested Mitt Romney in the Republican convention last weekend and will face off with him in the primary election. The tension between conservative and moderate Republicans also played out at the convention. And the Utah Jazz gear up for Game 6 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. 

 
At 9 a.m. Friday, Salt Lake Tribune reporters Lee Davidson, Taylor Anderson and Kyle Goon as well as columnist Robert Gehrke join KCPW’s Roger McDonough to talk about the week’s top stories.

 

Each Friday morning, stream “Behind the Headlines” online at kcpw.org or tune in to KCPW 88.3 FM or Utah Public Radio for the broadcast.
