Who's filed the most Freedom of Information Act-related lawsuits, trying to get information out of government? It's short of exhaustive, but a project at the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse (TRAC) at Syracuse University suggest that, in descending order since 2001, it's: The New York Times, Jason Leopold of VICE News, New York Times reporter Charlie Savage, The Center for Public Integrity, David Burnham of TRAC, The Associated Press, Tax Analysts, San Francisco Bay Guardian, Jeff Stein of Newsweek and Fox News.
