The Media, the Court, and the Misrepresentation

_x005F_x000D_ This book uncovers and describes media coverage of the Supreme Court and compares it to the Court’s actual work, its members, and the confirmation hearings. Analyzing media coverage of nominations and confirmation hearings, the justices’ ‘extra-curricular’ activities and their retirements/deaths, and the Court’s opinions and comparing this coverage to analyses of confirmation transcripts and the Court’s full docket, Rorie Spill Solberg and Eric N. Waltenburg contend that media now cover the Court and its personnel more similarly to its coverage of other political institutions.
