*ATLANTA - Channel 2 Action News* has obtained text messages that reveal an effort by then-Mayor Kasim Reed’s press secretary to delay releasing potentially embarrassing information about unpaid water bills by Atlanta city officials, and when finally released, to make it as difficult as possible to understand. The texts were provided to *Channel 2* by Lillian Govus, who was the top communications officer for Atlanta’s Department of Watershed Management and now works out of state. They document exchanges between Govus and former press secretary Jenna Garland between late February and early April of 2017 https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__2wsb.tv_2HtejHz&d=DwIFaQ&c=pZJPUDQ3SB9JplYbifm4nt2lEVG5pWx2KikqINpWlZM&r=b5NZPQUb9_r2rQ3Zd74ATT3aSs9yKyRnJLOhqJvd7fE&m=BrEddFG1GkwSHlnU21zU9h6qJ5fbljiMuc_Ln7TYri8&s=BkFagveD3-8hYh1-jo9ok2VNPfVCykcHzsDSMkh5On4&e= https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__2wsb.tv_2HtejHz-2B&d=DwIFaQ&c=pZJPUDQ3SB9JplYbifm4nt2lEVG5pWx2KikqINpWlZM&r=b5NZPQUb9_r2rQ3Zd74ATT3aSs9yKyRnJLOhqJvd7fE&m=BrEddFG1GkwSHlnU21zU9h6qJ5fbljiMuc_Ln7TYri8&s=EnRxqwuPFJHmsxOGsFm0CqyMA4Wr2WAZiXB8rEaay4w&e= -- Peterk Dallas, Tx [log in to unmask] Save our in-boxes! https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__emailcharter.org&d=DwIFaQ&c=pZJPUDQ3SB9JplYbifm4nt2lEVG5pWx2KikqINpWlZM&r=b5NZPQUb9_r2rQ3Zd74ATT3aSs9yKyRnJLOhqJvd7fE&m=BrEddFG1GkwSHlnU21zU9h6qJ5fbljiMuc_Ln7TYri8&s=DZURasZesAmK8sTh2wb4uOn96kpCZAhF3wahQmSB_YM&e= “If only there were a massive entity that I were forced to fund to tell me how I should live my life, since I’m so obviously incapable of deciding for myself.” M.
