    OSHA must disclose injury rates, judge rules By LEIGH STROPE, AP
    The Labor Department, in denying The Times' request for injury rates, said it would have to get permission from all 13,000 employers before releasing the data. That would be too burdensome because it would require 30,290 staff hours, or about 15 years to respond, it said.

    The ruling harshly criticized the Labor Department, at times calling its arguments misplaced, illogical, puzzling and especially troubling.
