CrossFit, Inc. has settled a lawsuit with the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) after HHS and the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) complied with CrossFit’s FOIA requests and released internal communications, as required by law. When HHS attorneys noticed incriminating content within these emails, however, they attempted to retroactively redact the information. CrossFit publishes these emails here, displaying evidence of the CDC’s internal awareness of its transparency policy with regard to donor records — even those of the organization’s powerful industry donors — and reluctance to make that damning information available to the public.
