Police Raid
The Marion County Record, a small Kansas newspaper, received a $3 million payout and a formal apology from local officials on Wednesday for a 2023 police raid deemed unlawful. The incident stemmed from the paper's handling of an anonymous tip about a restaurateur's driving record. Editor Eric Meyer hailed the resolution as a victory for press freedoms amid broader concerns over authoritarian pressures.
