Embarrassment is not a ground for withholding
What the document says“No record shall be withheld, delayed, or redacted on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary.”
Subsection (b) of section 2. It bars withholding, delaying or redacting any record on the ground of embarrassment, reputational harm or political sensitivity. The bar is stated to apply whether the person affected is a government official, a public figure or a foreign dignitary. Subsection (a) is made subject to this subsection.
What the document actually says“No record shall be withheld, delayed, or redacted on the basis of embarrassment, reputational harm, or political sensitivity, including to any government official, public figure, or foreign dignitary.”
A file cannot be held back to save a person from shame. It cannot be held back to protect a good name. It cannot be held back for being touchy.
This holds for people in office. It holds for well known people. It holds for leaders of other countries.
