Media access to the @ArizonaAudit comes with a huge catch.
Journalists can only attend in person as official observers who work 6-hour shifts & must commit to work at least 5 shifts. They won't be allowed to take photos or even take notes with pen and paper.
This information comes from @BennettArizona, the official liaison/spokesman for the @ArizonaAudit
.@BennettArizona now says he may reduce the 5-shift requirement to 1 shift. That still unreasonably restricts media access and requires journalists to actively participate in an event they're covering. And it's a far cry from what he's been telling the media all week.
