In this week’s episode of “Trib Talk,” Tribune reporter Benjamin Wood discusses this week’s Supreme Court decision in the Masterpiece Cakeshop case with John Mejia, legal director for the ACLU of Utah, and Bill Duncan, director of The Sutherland Institute’s Center for Family and Society.
Benjamin Wood: On Monday, the United States Supreme Court ruled in favor of a Colorado baker who refused to create a cake for a same-sex couple.
But the court focused on the specific factors at play in the Colorado case, leaving unresolved the broader question of whether, and under what circumstances, business owners have a right to discriminate based on their religious beliefs.
