Around the same time, the late historian Stanley Kutler sued the National
Archives for access to the still-unreleased tapes and Maarja Krusten, who
worked on the Nixon tapes at NARA, was deposed as part of the suit. Her
testimony revealed that one of Nixon’s representatives had asked archivists
to restrict certain records for public release, but to label those
redactions as though they were the decision of the archive. Krusten and her
colleagues objected to the request and were accused of political bias; some
of them were demoted. In 1992, a former archives employee characterized
Krusten’s team to The New Yorker as “lacking sophistication.”
