A number of news media companies, including The Atlanta Journal-Constitution, on Monday filed a motion opposing Donald Trump’s attempt to expunge the final report from the special purpose grand jury that investigated possible criminal meddling in Georgia’s 2020 presidential election.
“Not only is such a remedy unsupported by any legal basis, it would also be starkly at odds with the fundamental principles of this nation and state,” the motion said. “The report is a matter of the utmost public concern, and it should be released to the public in its entirety.”
Among those joining the AJC were CNN, Bloomberg, The Associated Press, The Wall Street Journal, The New York Times as well as CMG Media Corp. and its station WSB-TV.
