How Do Cause Lawyers Decide When and Where to Litigate on behalf of Their Cause
In this article, we begin to respond to the deceptively simple question: How do cause lawyers decide when and where to litigate on behalf of their cause? We consider the choice of location and timing faced by cause lawyers when more than one jurisdiction evinces a suitable legal environment for pursuing litigation on their cause. To consider this choice, we use evidence from the timing and actions of cause lawyers in the marriage equality cases i…

The attention and prominence given to issues in media outlets may affect the importance citizens attribute to them, so the actors who influence mass media coverage decisions may have political power in society generally.

This article concerns the relative abilities of government officials and media owners to influence political discourse. Both affected The New York Times' coverage of the Greek civil war before the declaration of the Truman Doctrine. When the Truman administration leaked its intention to interven…
The mechanisms of management control at the New York Times
Many explanations for news media behavior focus on the biases of journalists, neglecting the structural constraints they face. Others have theorized that the power of ownership limits the autonomy of reporters and represents a significant influence on news coverage. This article examines the internal records of the New York Times and identifies several mechanisms of management control. Editors suggest the tone and substance of stories and later t…
