Communications
From: Kevin Gosztola
Dear FOIA Officer,
This is a request for records under the Freedom of Information Act (“FOIA”), 5), 5 U.S.C. § 552, et seq. I am seeking copies of any files and any other documents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s Office of Public Affairs involving any response to “Black Lives Matter” protests or protests against “officer-involved shootings,” which have taken place since August 9, 2014.
This should include, but not be limited to: any files and any other documents that are related or refer to "live streams" or Internet video broadcasts of protest activity or civil unrest, any communications with local law enforcement agencies in the United States on how to publicly address the police response to "Black Lives Matter" protests or protests against "officer-involved shootings," and any communications with journalists, reporters, correspondents, news producers, etc, on the FBI’s response to “Black Lives Matter” protests or protests against “officer-involved shootings.”
A search for records responsive to this request should include, but not be limited to: main file records, cross-reference records, FOI/PA records, etc.
If you deny all or part of this request, please cite the specific exemptions you believe justify your refusal to release the information or permit the review and notify me of your appeal procedures available under the law.
I respectfully urge the agency to “black out” rather than “white out” or “cut out” material that must be redacted.
I call your attention to President Barack Obama’s 21 January 2009 Memorandum for the Heads of Executive Departments and Agencies, which directs agencies to adopt a presumption in favor of disclosure and stating that government information should not be kept confidential “merely because public officials might be embarrassed by disclosure, because errors and failures might be revealed, or because of speculative or abstract fears.”
I am a journalist currently working in a freelance capacity and have previously been a salaried and paid journalist for Firedoglake.com.
According to 5 U.S.C. § 552(a)(4)(A)(ii), codifying the ruling of Nat’l Security Archive v. Dep’t of Defense, 880 F.2d 1381 (D.C. Cir. 1989), the term “a representative of the news media” means any person or entity that gathers information of potential interest to a segment of the public, uses its editorial skills to turn the raw materials into a distinct work, and distributes that work to an audience.
I have a clear intent to “publish[ ] or otherwise disseminate[ ] information to the public.” Id. at 1386 (quoting the following legislative history: 1) “It is critical that the phrase ‘representative of the news media’ be broadly interpreted if the act is to work as expected. . . . In fact, any person or organization which regularly publishes or disseminates information to the public . . . should qualify for waivers as a ‘representative of the news media.’” 132 Cong. Rec. S14298 (daily ed. Sept. 30, 1986) (emphasis in original quotation); 2) “A request by a reporter or other person affiliated with a newspaper, magazine, television or radio station, or other entity that is in the business of publishing or otherwise disseminating information to the public qualifies under this provision.” 132 Cong. Rec. H9463 (Oct. 8, 1986) (emphasis in original quotation)).
Therefore, in accordance with the Freedom of Information Act and relevant case law, I, Kevin Gosztola, should be considered a representative of the news media and, as such, I am also requesting a public interest fee waiver.
Please ensure that, in accordance with the DC Circuit’s ruling in Chambers v. Dep’t of the Interior, 568 F.3d 998 (D.C. Cir. 2009), all records potentially responsive to this FOIA request are immediately preserved from destruction until the final resolution of this FOIA action. Destruction of potentially responsive records after the receipt of a FOIA request is considered “contumacious conduct” by the DC Circuit. See id. at 1004.
Under law, your agency must respond to this request within 20 working days. A failure to comply may result in the filing of civil action against your agency in a United States District Court.
Please provide any records that are located or found to be responsive to this request to me in electronic (soft-copy) form.
I recognize that you have experienced a deluge of FOIA requests in the past year. However, I have confidence that you will work to fulfill your duties and respond to this request appropriately and in a timely manner, which is as the law requires.
Thank you for your cooperation. If you would like to discuss this request, please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions.
Sincerely,
Kevin Gosztola
