[edit] Investigating animal cruelty

"Last Sunday, we published a lengthy investigative report by staffer Meghan Malloy that looked into an alleged puppy mill that was operating in Somerville, and looked into how state and local officials had regulated the dog-breeding operation prior to 2008.

I want to tell you how we used Maine's Freedom of Access laws to get the documents at the heart of this report."
