Read Chapter 9: Gathering Information -- Records and Meetings
Write down five (5) questions, with at least one question each being from the four main sections, i.e.,
1. News Gathering and the Law
2. The Freedom of Information Act
3. State Laws on Meetings and Records
4. Laws that Restrict Access to Information
These questions should be ones to which you truly would like an answer and don't yet know the answer. It may be that you would like something explained more fully, or you think something is wrong, etc.
In addition, you will be given a set of cards called "What to do until the lawyer comes." Please take these cards with you and request or find some public information that is by law available to citizens. Please provide a copy of the information and a paragraph explaining how you got the information.
