Greenburg, author of the excellent and bestselling Supreme Conflict (2007), will become Chief Legal Correspondent at CBS, as of January 4, 2010. Meanwhile, back at […] -

Covering The Court: Thoughts From Dahlia Lithwick
We spent a fair amount of time last week in lovely Charlottesville, Virginia, where we spoke at the University of Virginia Law School (coverage of our talk appears here and here). We spent lots of quality time with UVA Law students — at dinner, at a karaoke bar, and walking around the beautiful grounds. One […] - Sponsored

Where in the World is Jan Crawford Greenburg?
One of our favorite Supreme Court reporters, the fabulous Jan Crawford Greenburg, gave a speech at Harvard Law School today. But she didn’t tarry in Cambridge: Not sure what is going on, but JCG just finished giving a speech at HLS and said that: a) She was turning around to go back to Washington immediately […]

Catfight at One First Street! Nina Totenberg Lays the Smackdown on Jan Crawford Greenburg
New Yorker writer Jeffrey Toobin’s exciting new book, The Nine: Inside the Secret World of the Supreme Court, is being released tomorrow. But it’s already provoking some interesting discussion in the blogosphere. See, e.g., this post by Professor Rick Garnett (esp. the comments). And it’s garnering some favorable reviews. The dean of the Supreme Court […] -

'Takeover' by Charlie Savage: A Fabulous Book Party
“Dear Jim: Thanks for the great job you do pushing the mail cart around the office. You truly are a special person!” [Charlie Savage signs a copy of his book for Aaron Zitner, politics editor for the Los Angeles Times.] Earlier this week, we attended a delightful book party for Takeover: The Return of the […] -

Who Will Be the Next AG? We're Betting On Terwilliger
Yesterday we opined that Judge Laurence H. Silberman would get the Attorney General nomination. Now we take that back. After our post, a knowledgeable source informed us that Laurence Silberman isn’t interested in the job. A second source, who confirmed Judge Silberman’s lack of interest, added that he might be tougher to confirm that one […] -

Harriet Miers: Who Deserves the Blame?
Sigh. Too much to write about, not enough time (or energy). We should have written about this on Tuesday. But since we didn’t, we now have the luxury of assembling a post by commenting on what other people have already written — and snarkily noting that they all say the same thing. It all started […] -

Divagate: A Rebuttal to Nina and Jan
Maybe you’re tired of reading about NPR’s Nina Totenberg and the tempest in a teapot over seating in the Supreme Court press gallery. But we’re not. So we’ll continue to write about it, since ATL is our party, and we’ll cry if we want to. We have two new messages to pass along today. One […] - Sponsored

In Defense of Nina: Jan Crawford Greenburg
In the wake of the quasi-scandal that the divine Dahlia Lithwick has dubbed Divagate, we’ve received several defenses of that legend of the Supreme Court press corps, NPR’s Nina Totenberg. We previously shared with you an email from Tom Goldstein, who once interned for Totenberg (just as Cate Edwards is doing this summer). Today we […] -

At the Supreme Court, Waiting for the Other Shoes to Drop
And we’re not speaking metaphorically, about the remaining decisions from October Term 2006. We’re talking about the shoes of celebrated Supreme Court reporter Jan Crawford Greenburg, of ABC News. Will a pair of Manolos fall from the sky? So, what happened to JCG’s footwear? Was it a case of sabotage, by an increasingly threatened rival? […] -

Greenhouse v. Greenburg: JCG Responds
“Linda says Jan has had work done — I mean, A LOT of work….” Due to associate pay raise mania, we’ve been neglecting news in other areas of the legal profession — like our beloved federal judiciary. We’re embarrassed, for example, not to have commented upon the Bush Administration’s rumored Supreme Court short list, drawn […] -

Greenhouse v. Greenburg: The Catfight Continues
Do we exaggerate the rivalry between Linda Greenhouse, the New York Times’s veteran Supreme Court correspondent, and comely up-and-comer Jan Crawford Greenburg, who covers the Court for ABC News? Maybe. We have a weakness for the dramatic, in case you haven’t noticed. But even if exaggerated, there’s no denying the tension between these two formidable […] -

Stone Cold: Jan Crawford Greenburg Blog-Smacks Her Former Dean
Give a girl a Supreme Court beat and a best-selling book, and she gets her sassy on! The fantabulous Jan Crawford Greenburg has taken on Geoff Stone, the former dean of the University of Chicago’s law school, in a tart blog post. Stone (along with Rosie O’Donnell) had declared himself troubled by the fact that […]

Linda Greenhouse: God Save the Queen?
Because she needs all the help she can get these days. Backlash and insurrection against New York Times reporter Linda Greenhouse, the long reigning queen of the Supreme Court press corps, continue to grow. For years, the courts construed 40 U.S.C. 6134 — which forbids “loud, threatening, or abusive language in the Supreme Court Building” […] -

For decades, Linda Greenhouse has ruled the reportorial roost at the Supreme […] -
