One small point. The article says the “matter has been sent to the Attorney General for a ruling.” The AG cannot “rule,” he can only issue an opinion. Only a court can “rule.”

The matter sent to the Attorney General was the FOIA request from the paper.

The AG can make an ADMINISTRATIVE ruling. The court can over-rule the administrative ruling with a judicial ruling.
