State and local leaders are facing continued backlash over plans to move forward with a data center planned in Box Elder County. Panelists Taylor Morgan and Erin Rider join Lindsay to discuss how the state and developers can address both the angst and what some are calling confusion and misinformation.

For context on the incident between ABC4's Bayan Wang, you can see the full story below and read the accompanying statement.

KTVX/KUCW stand on the story we aired and posted on ABC4.com.

We presented the events of Bayan Wang’s interaction with Senator Jerry Stevenson completely and accurately.

ABC4 arrived on the property after communicating with J & J management. It was not our intention to interview Sen. Stevenson after the state informed us he was unavailable. What you see on video was an unplanned encounter after Sen. Stevenson approached our team in the parking lot.

After the events captured on camera, and our debrief with police, ABC4 accepts the Senator’s apology and intends to respect the trespassing warning issued at that time.

Bayan Wang is declining to press charges against the Senator at this time.
