How Does FOX Get Away With This?

FOX Network's O'Reilly obtains private information about abortions performed in Kansas after the state attorney general gained access to the information through a subpoena. If the attorney general or any of his staff turned over those records to O'Reilly, that is a greivous violation of the law.

Attorney General Phill Kline, a staunch abortion opponent, said that he subpoenaed the records in order to see if there was any evidence of rape or illegal abortions which had gone unreported. My guess is that this is more of a "witch hunt" aimed at Dr. George Tiller, the attending physician of the clinic from which the records were obtained. Whatever the situation, if those records were shared with anyone outside the court, Kline should be held responsible, and O'Reilly should be given his walking papers for accepting information which is so obviously private - information that never should never have been placed in his hands.
