Media Misleads on Justice Scalia's Statements Twice In One Month!!

The coverage of legal issues by the media is often very bad.

The coverage of the Supreme Court is horrible.

The coverage of Justice Scalia and his legal theories are often absurd.

Still one wonders if there is a intentional political axe being grinded in a unfair way against Scalia. I posted on how the parts of the Press was misleading about recent statements Scalia said in oral arguments just a couple of weeks ago.

Yet here we go again!!! Ann Althouse has The phony quotes keep coming — and they go viral before even very quick corrections.

Ann points out correctly

The misrepresentation of Scalia's remarks went viral almost instantly, which is the way things go these days. Damage is done, even when the corrections are instantaneous.

When Justices speak in this public forum like Scalia does we sort of get a peek of OZ behind the curtain as to the Supreme Court. If journalists abuse this then all nine of the OZs might go behind the curtain and we shall see and hear from them from only behind the bench.
