nope, didn't go away. in 2004, when Ohio's concealed carry was initially passed, 'journalists' could request a list of all licensees from the local sherrif. this was amended in 2007 to forbid the release of lists; 'journalists' can now only view the lists, and are not allowed to take notes. Ohio House Bill 328 was introduced in 2011 to require a court order to view the lists, it appears as though that bill went nowhere. the relevant section of the law is (2)(a) at 2923.129 (click)
