Another journalist victimized by Bredesen's Watergate


Kleinheider at Postpolitics.net has the breaking story from WKRN about one of their own:

A former News 2 anchor was one of two journalists whose personal background was accessed by a Tennessee Highway Patrol trooper currently on administrative leave.

Victoria Hansen, who left WKRN-TV in 2006, told News 2 the Tennessee Highway Patrol confirmed with her an unauthorized check of her personal background was conducted.

She was not told why.

Hansen is now an anchor in Charleston, SC.

But, what about Trent Siebert--the former government watchdog and investigative reporter? No background checks on him?
