From today's San Jose Mercury News' "AP Breaking News" section -
First, the FBI settled a FOIA suit with a scholar who had sought access to the FBI's files re John Lennon - the FBI fought release for 16 years, finally agreeing to release all but 10 records and pay the requester's $204,000 in accrued attorney's fees. The records released revealed no information which suggested that Lennon was involved in, planned to, or engaged in an illegal act; he was, however, unpopular with the then-head of the FBI, J. Edgar Hoover.
