“the court concluded that the public's right of access outweighed whatever emotional distress the unsealing might cause.” Because the First Amendment rights of media organizations generally supercede the privacy rights of litigants, since the American legal system favors transparency in all court proceedings.

Could this be of relevance as to documents Obama refuses to release? Divorce records can be accessed for the media's folly and ruin a 9 year old's life but Obama's BC cannot?

Any truth to Obama being married before Michelle? Also interesting Obama used the divorce papers to destroy his opponent in the Illinois senate election.

I find it so funny that disclosing records (divorce papers of opponents) got his career started and is the very thing clouding his Presidency.
