By law, nothing. Whether you are a nurse, a bricklayer, a student or a doctor, you are no less entitled to access to government files than a newspaper editor under the Kansas Open Records Act. But in reality, there can a big difference.
Most journalists have a pretty good idea of what's public under the act.
They know when an agency is concealing information in violation of the law. And they know what to do about it. The same can not be said for most people. Those brochures aren't for reporters. They are for you.
