Hello Public Records Division:

A news article in the Boston Globe yesterday, on or about December 20, 2022, is of concern to me
regarding SPR22/2771

The Governor-elect Healey stated on the Jim Braude show that she "supports more transparency"
when it is my theory that the A.G.'s office under both Medford resident Martha Coakley and her
then-protege' - Maura Healey - were allegedly refusing to answer my request to purportedly
protect a previous mayor, Michael J. McGlynn.

Exhibit 1
Gov.-elect Healey says she won’t claim public records exemption, supports more transparency for Legislature, judiciary  https://www.bostonglobe.com/2022/12/20/metro/gov-elect-healey-says-she-wont-claim-public-records-exemption-supports-more-transparency-legislature-judiciary/

To be clear, I am the journalist who invested time and money in the investigation of Medford Community Cablevision, Inc., the public access station which terrifies politicians in Medford.

As your office is very aware through my more than a decade of filings, the access TV station has censored ordinary residents as well as the cable TV subscribers who fund the access channels.

The Medford politicians violate their oath of office to uphold the U.S. Constitution (First Amendment,) which, I believe is something the current Attorney General (and Governor-elect) is doing by ducking and hiding these documents.  The perpetual excuse of allegedly "impeding" law enforcement is nonsensical as the statute of limitations has clearly run out ....intentionally I might add.  No "allegedly intentionally" necessary, this has been flagrant.

Maura Healey took an oath to uphold the First Amendment, yet a public access producer who started his show way back in 1979 cannot get a straight answer at all from the Attorney General's office.  Who are they protecting?  Certainly not the ratepayers furious with paying money for something Medford refuses to offer in a logical, easy-to-use way.

If the Governor-elect is bragging on the air about transparency, here's her big chance as Attorney General to put our cable money where her mouth is.

Said with all due respect.  Sly Stone, musician notorious for tardy appearances puts out record albums quicker than this current AG responds properly to public records requests.

Please send via e mail

Respectfully,
