Government agencies are allowed to prioritize FOIA requests based on if they agree with the motives of the applicant?

What I wanted to say is of course the government is not expected to be a model of information sharing, especially when there are 300k pages. Anti-vaccine campaign knows this and takes advantage. They say anything about this anyway. They say 2076 when FDA gives them 500 pages per month. That’s a free win as they don’t even need to read the data. Give more they just read the data with bias and there are going to be more stories. You can not change people’s mind when they come with an agenda.

The FDA has made a public commitment to transparency regarding Covid-19 vaccines.[1] Given that, I would absolutely expect them to be a model of information sharing.
