Politico's reporter, who broke the story of the Roe v. Wade case, gives some advice to the newsroom.

Politico's story was right.

Josh Garstein, who co-signed theearthquake scooplast month on a court's leak of opinion about abortion, learns that an official Supreme Court decision could overturn Law. I got up on Friday and was online. v. Wade may be inherited. He didn't think the ruling was likely until next week, but he prepared iced tea (chosen a decaffeinated drink), logged on to Zoom Call from home with the editor at 10am, and logged on to Zoom Call from home. The court refreshment has begun. A website to check what kind of opinions will be announced.

When the court ruled Dobbs vs. Jackson Women's Health Agency at 10:10 am, "we have just begun preparations," Gerstein told me. May 2 Story Telegram.

Gerstein described Friday as "crazy and chaotic." I'm sure it applies to most news rooms as journalists worked to cover the decision and explain exactly what it meant to viewers across the country.

Can you find out the source of POLITICO?

Since Politico's scoop, speculation about leakers and possible motives for leaks has swirled. The number one question Garstein received on Friday was what he believed was the effect of the leak. "It's a little difficult to say," he admitted.

After the official ruling came out, when Gerstein asked if he spoke to the source of the leaked opinion, he refused to answer. But he suggested that one day we could all know who the source was. When I asked Gerstein if the person would eventually put himself out, he said, "I don't think I can answer it directly, but in most situations that part of the story is told. I think most of these are story types, watergates or whatever you have. But we will see, "Gerstein, as a reporter," history is more informative. We are moving in the direction of coming, "he added.

"Too much credit" or inadequate.

Gerstein is not only one of the two reporters who reported the news that the court was set to overturn Roe (the other reporter was Alexander Ward), as well. industry. So I asked him what the media covering this moment of crustal movement could improve.

Garstein believes the news media is over-focusing on Judge Clarence Thomas'ssupportive opinionand revisits the court with other groundbreaking cases. He said he was asking. "Just because liberal judges say this ruling means same-sex marriage or contraception (their rights are about to be deprived), or advocacy groups say it is the most direct fallout. It doesn't tend to mean that, "Gelstein said. "I think the press is a little too confident about that kind of thing, but it's somewhat speculative," Gerstein said instead, "there's a lot more concrete," the press notes. Insisted that it could be done. Down the road. "

When I asked Jeffrey Tobin, CNN's chief legal analyst, about this, he said it was a" fair point "and" I should say a lot about the impact of Dobbs itself. " I certainly agree. " But Mr. Tubin said, "Thomas is a conservative majority senior member of the court. His clear support for overturning these cases is definitely worth the press. Only liberals are falling. That would be one thing, but Thomas claims. "

" I've spent my entire career in journalism covering Roe's legacy, "Toobin said. Added to. "This has always been the biggest issue in the Supreme Court. At one level, the dispute over Roe is over, but the proceedings from Dobbs will continue to grow, as will Bruen and gun control. All legal proceedings on books will be challenged. "

Press Note

Most major press agencies have taken up breaking news, like the SCOTUS decision. We are in the process of distributing. CNN viewers were able to see that it was happening in real time. At 10:10 am, Jim Skiat said he had been sentenced and waited for the DC News Room to evaluate his remarks. Jeffrey Toobin, Chief Legal Analyst, who was already at the anchor desk in the 1/6 hearing segment, set up a news table saying it was "flashbulb memory." Country. Then, at 10:12, Jessica Schneider reported the decision and the press began.

>> Fox News disconnected the segment with Reince Priebus to break the news, and Shannon Dream reported from outside the court.

>> MSNBC initially tinkered with the news by chopping up the already-in-progress NBC special report with a delay. But since then, the network has been breaking news without commercials for four hours in a row.

Fox Filter

Prime time coverage from Fox was exactly what you would expect from a right-wing channel. Organizers portrayed anti-abortion activists as part of a country under attack from "radical" liberals. The four banners, aired at 7 pm and 8 pm, actually show the duration of the press.

>> "RADICALS SWARM HOME OF CLARENCE THOMAS"

>>"Pro-life movement targeted by the far left"

>>"ROE is dead. Threatening the" night of anger ""

>> "ROEISDEAD: Just as abortion is angry, people in professional life weep for joy. Shout "
