Liverpool Daily Post scores scoop with reader’s FOI request
December 1st, 2008Posted by Laura Oliver in Online Journalism
Today’s story from the Liverpool Daily Post on council staff taking sick leave was the result of a Freedom of Information request made through democracy website www.whatdotheyknow.com.
And how do we know?
Because the source and links to the information released through the FOI request are included at the bottom of the article. A nice touch.

(Thanks to Andy Dickinson for telling us about this)
