Bonus: How To Cover Lawlessness On A Show About The Law

Each week, Dahlia Lithwick welcomes you to the show by saying “Amicus is Slate’s podcast about the courts, the law and the Supreme Court.” Sometimes that list includes the rule of law, sometimes democracy. In the wake of the election, Amicus and Slate’s jurisprudence team have been wrangling some big questions around what we do and how we do it. We are, as journalists and as a society, standing at the crossroads where a lawless SCOTUS and a lawless administration will meet. How do we cover the law, if the law is for suckers? On this week’s bonus episode, Dahlia and Mark Stern take listeners behind the scenes for an inside view of the conversations we’re having in editorial meetings here at Slate, as we strive (always) to be worthy of the trust you place in us. And we want to hear from you. You can email us at [email protected]
