Legal Hotline

Legal Hotline – (608) 284-4000

Editors, reporters and advertising staff have a toll-free WNA phone number to call and ask an attorney for immediate help when they are denied access to government meetings or records, have concerns about a story that could involve libel or privacy questions, or face similar challenges to Freedom of Information (FOI) principles. Ad staff can use the Hotline when questions arise as to the legality of an ad.
