Or maybe you could accept that the local didn't get the story untill after the print deadline or they just didn't think it was newsworthy or they just didn't know about it instead of jumping to conclusions that the government are blocking the free press

Why would it cause a scandal? They would be blocking a local story, not a national one with huge public interest.
