We have a whole rights and clearances department.
You want footage of when Clinton was on MTV: Choose or Loose? You'll have to pay for it. And like Mr. Greenwald found, the request may be denied. But that's the same for ANY archival footage for any person. If I own the rights, I can decide if or how I want to release it.
As for it being a vested interest in just protecting President Bush? Hardly, it's about appeasing the current administration, as the same things happened with President Clinton.
