This trial in Knoxville could be the most positive thing for every news organization in the state. It has already shown there are corrupt local leaders. It has already proven a heightened awareness of corruption is needed in every community. It has also shown the need for a really tough open meetings/records law in Tennessee. Most importantly, however, it is showing how effective a newspaper can be when it has guts enough to go to court.
