Bredesen wants to close sex harassment records following shredding controversy

SPJ is firmly against the creation of any more exemptions to the state public records act.

And this is yet another good reason why Middle TN Pro SPJ is a charter member of the Tennessee Coalition for Open Government, the new group for which Frank is executive director.
