The chief judge of the Districts federal court issued an unusual order Wednesday, apologizing to the public and the media for not making certain court documents widely available online. The gesture of transparency by U.S. District Judge Royce C.

Yep. I remember it well. Frustrating.
Very nice...notice the great quality of the filming in that clip...not replicated today...
The producer who was also targeted was named Levin Also Wm Lagenes
Also main fox office in NYC and DC bureau
Rosen was the primary target because he was head of the DC bureau. By targeting him they included ALL who report to him. Which would include all FOX reporter who work in DC
Levin is one of the producers there
Just think who else that includes and the stories they are working on !!!
I didn’t know the producer’s name was Levin.
BTTT
Thanks very much for that important information!!!
See post 18.
Thank you for the details!
[Lamberth blamed a series of administrative errors and said a review of the performance of the personnel involved is underway.]
A lot of these lately.
While everyone is wondering what is up with the Obama Administration? What is up with US Magistrate Alan Kay?
Seems like a big coincidence that his document problems happened conveniently on this case.
I smell a massive conspiracy.
