A subpoena from the Davis County Attorney's office, made public today by KSL, is demanding the station turn over "edited and unedited versions of interviews with Mark Walker, Richard Ellis and Greg Curtis."
Davis County and Weber County prosecutors are handling an investigation into an allegation that Walker, a former state legislator, promised Ellis a job and a big pay increase if he would drop out of the state treasurer's race.
The interviews were conducted on June 23 on the Doug Wright radio program and on July 10 by TV reporter Richard Piatt.
We at The Vault will be closely watching the case, as a government request for TV and radio out-takes is generally considered akin to asking for a print reporter's notes.
