A federal appeals court has rejected former US President Joe Biden's bid to block the release of audio recordings and transcripts of interviews he gave to a memoir ghostwriter before he was elected president.
In a 2-1 ruling issued late Monday, the panel found there is a "substantial" public interest in disclosing the material Biden wants to keep under wraps, adding that redactions to the recordings would help protect his privacy.
“We conclude that any remaining incursion on personal privacy from disclosure of the now-redacted materials likely does not outweigh the public interest in disclosure,” the ruling said.
