[edit] Activist lawyer says City Council e-mail dispute is about transparency
"It didn't happen in 2008, when Tracie Washington sued the state in the hope of getting Charity Hospital reopened.
Or in 2006, when she sued the Housing Authority of New Orleans to keep the city from demolishing four public housing complexes.
But it happened last week. Washington, a civil rights attorney drawn to the causes of the underdog, became, if not the issue, then a central part of it, when it emerged that she had obtained thousands of e-mails sent and received by four City Council members and one employee of the Office of Recovery Management."
