institutional director and each facility supervisor shall promulgate orders to
establish the methods and system of dealing with the news media and public

efficient flow of accurate information to the public under circumstances
consistent with and in a manner conducive to safety, security, and the
recognition of the right to privacy.

without the written approval of the secretary of corrections. Interviewing and
photographing an inmate shall be allowed only with the inmate's written consent
and liability waiver.

and restrictions as are applicable to general correspondence and mail as

institutional director or facility supervisor.
