Impact analysis
While there's no direct price tag yet, taxpayer money could easily get wasted if this feud leads to costly legal battles over free speech or public records.
Honestly, nobody wins when elected officials and the press go to war—it just erodes public trust.
You are—because when local leaders freeze out the media, you lose the unfiltered facts you need to know what's going on in your town.
