Shutting out media, denying access, leads to bad results

There’s an old saying about government — “what is said isn’t so, it’s what is so isn’t said.”

So that means that someone — maybe a state auditor, maybe a whistleblower, but often a news reporter — needs to dig in and find out what is really happening with our tax dollars.

That’s why it was so disgusting to read recently about our “Secretary of War’s” crackdown on access by reporters to the Pentagon.
