Freedom Of Information

Freedom of Information Acts (FOIA) at the state and federal level set out a process through which reporters and citizens can request public documents from their government officials. To make this work, reporters must know how to navigate this system and when to push back on officials.

This FOIA webinar took place for our 2022 summer intern class and a handful of new staffers.

Hosts: Anna Bybee-Schier and Neal McNamara
