Summary:

Although former Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson claimed to have, as McClatchy notes, "made sure that financial regulators met frequently and coordinated actions" during the run-up to the recent financial meltdown, neither the Office of Thrift Supervision nor the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation could produce any communications from Paulson's office, in response to a FOIA request from McClatchy.
