Morning Docket: 11.17.17

* If you were wondering how the tax bill would screw over attorneys, here it is. [Law360] * Neil Gorsuch appeared at the Federalist Society dinner and made jokes about the "frozen trucker" case because a lifetime appointment means never having to say you're sorry. [National Law Journal] * Jared Fogle tried the old "sovereign citizen" trick. Unfortunately for him, admiralty courts have jurisdiction over subs. [ABA Journal] * Does the media's prophylactic use of "allegedly" to avoid libel contribute to a culture that dismisses women's stories of harassment? An interesting Al Franken-inspired case study. [Washington Post] * Don't kill Section 230 just because some websites don't take the time to manage their trolls. [Slate] * Robert Hays secured a fifth term as chair of King & Spalding. Woe to those who oppose his glorious reign. Dilly dilly. [American Lawyer] * The Washington Supreme Court has finally ruled that former Skadden Fellow Tarra Simmons can take the bar exam. [KING5] * When you're paying $160 million in bribes, you're doing something wrong. [Law360]
