This is a HUGE violation of the Freedom of Information Act. It most certainly is worth a lawsuit and I hope the governor of Arkansas and others get what they deserve. - Dwayne Charrington. http://www.dwaynecharrington.com I think that a lawsuit is warranted.

My first reaction on seeing your post title was to think this had to be a frivolous lawsuit, but now I see the issue isn't the edits, but rather the use of state owned computers to make the edits. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out and you have to wonder how bright someone had to be to make the edits in the first place.
