A federal appeals court will decide how transparent last year's unprecedented taxpayer-funded bailout will be when it considers whether two media companies are entitled to obtain financial records that identify which companies received emergency funds from the government. In both cases, the board argued that even if the records housed at regional banks were agency records, it could refuse to hand them over under Exemption 4 because the records constituted confidential financial information that, if disclosed, would cause substantial competitive harm to borrowers and essentially destroy confidence in the banks, resulting in their collapse.

Identity Theft is stealing the identity of another personal and using the stolen identity for an illegal purpose. Victims report that identity thieves have used their personal information to steal money from their bank accounts, open new credit card accounts, open new cel...
