Nixon references government transparency
St. Louis Post-Dispatch
Gov. Jay Nixon’s State of the State has contained few surprises, but one nice promise (at least for the press corps) was saying an open and accountable government is a Missouri principle.
As many of you know, former Gov. Matt Blunt refused to hand over some e-mails, which led to a lawsuit by then-Attorney General Nixon, as well as a multiple-publication freedom of information request.
