This request should be placed in the "news media" fee category.

I am the publisher of the online newspaper Witnesses Unto Me and am guaranteed publication.

The topics I provided are of interest to the public and I will take the raw materials obtained via FOIA and turn them into a unique work product using my editorial skills.

The unique work product will be a news piece and it will be published by Witnesses Unto Me.

Witnesses Unto Me is a news publication available to and reaching the general public.

The activities of the government are often of public interest because they are funded with public money. The technical report bibliography will show the areas where the government is conducting research and expending resources. Further, the keywords that were listed are often of a controversial matter, therefore the government research into controversial topics will make for a news story of great public interest.

Please process this request as soon as possible and bill according to the news media fee category.
