Description
McMILLIAN, Circuit Judge. The Pulitzer Publishing Co., the publisher of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, a daily newspaper of general circulation in the St. Louis metropolitan area, and Edward H. Kohn, the newspaper's assistant city editor for projects (hereinafter appellants), appeal from a final order entered in the District Court1 for the Eastern District of Missouri denying their motion to immediately unseal the affidavits and other materials attached to two search warrants. In re Search Warrant for Secretarial Area, No. 88-MISC-260 (E.D. Mo. July 15, 1988) (order). For reversal appellants argue the district court erred in denying the motion to unseal because no compelling government interest justified denial of their right to immediate access to these documents and in failing to make specific findings and to make line-by-line redactions of the documents. For the reasons discussed below, we affirm the order of the district court.
