  • Blawging stateside - Hannah Ryan in New York has assembled the best and the brightest of the online legal commentariat; Intellectuals, pundits, provocateurs, investigative journalists - A fascinating hive of activity in the law space. While few can compare to the wit and wisdom of Justinian, there is a glut of legal media in the US. Here are the most notable blogs (as they call them here, "blawgs"), writers and podcasters talking law, national security and rights.
    Some of the blogs include:
  • Above The Law is a straight-down-the-line legal news outfit staffed by former lawyers, publishing stories and tidbits about biglaw, law schools, and goings-on in the courts.
  • BuzzFeed's U.S. operation has two of the US's most law-obsessed reporters on its staff, legal editor Chris Geidner and Zoe Tillman. It's almost certainly impossible to tweet more about law than Geidner does. Their coverage is comprehensive, detailed, and consumable.

  • Laurence Tribe's Twitter feed - Legendary constitutional lawyer, Harvard professor, Obama mentor, and now prolific Trump critic on Twitter: Laurence Tribe is worth a follow.

  • More Perfect - Do you like richly reported, moving stories about the people behind major Supreme Court decisions? Then listen to More Perfect (a spin-off of the popular RadioLab podcast).
