The Washington Post's FOIA double standard | Norman Leahy | Local Opinion Zone | Washington Examiner

Recall that when Del. Marshall originally requested Dr. Mann’s records, UVA told him they had been deleted, as Mann was no longer an employee. At roughly the same time, when Greenpeace requested the emails and much more of former professors Pat Michaels and Fred Singer, UVA not only found the records, but was eager to comply with the group’s request. Greenpeace was looking for “a list of grants that financed their research. The organization also requested conflict-of-interest statements, disclosure forms on outside income, correspondence with conservative advocacy groups and correspondence with ExxonMobil and other companies.”

The Post doesn’t mention any of this, alas.
