Much has been made of Larry H. Miller's decision to pull the film "Brokeback Mountain." I won't pass over well-worn territory, but I will suggest that the state of Utah ends up the loser. The state recently allocated millions of dollars for an "image campaign" to boost tourism and attract business owners — not nearly enough to combat the message Mr. Miller sent to the world.
