> the critiques by the restaurant owner that the paper in question often acts like a cheap tabloid Note, the newspaper never published the DUI of the restaurant owner because they decided it wasn’t relevant to their reporting. All I’m seeing from your comment is a repetition of a baseless accusation from someone trying to justify their actions after the fact.

I read the paper did still report on her DUI but for an unrelated reporting on a city council meeting though? The thing they didn't do was use the anonymously leaked DUI information they received for the original reporting on the restaurant incident (2 different articles). Which is why they defended themselves saying the DUI stuff they later published for the city council article was simply via public records. I could be wrong though and happy to be corrected. Otherwise if that's is indeed the case, then how did the police learn about the DUI leak without them actually reporting on it first?

  > how did the police learn about the DUI leak Since you read the article, you read the part that explains the owner of the paper, Eric Meyer, emailed the the police chief, Gideon Cody, about the tip along with a screenshot of the DOR record.

  All articles which I have read, including this one, have clearly stated that the newspaper didn’t publish the DUI allegation.

  > recognize the irrelevance of this story Irrelevant that a local police department and judge executed an illegal search and seizure on a newspaper? I cannot fathom why a fellow news and media organization could possibly be interested in that.

  The conservative press covered this story as well. Heck, international press covered it. You're seeing bias because you want to see bias.
