Jonathan Turley (George Washington) is not “the second-most cited law professor in the country”…
By Brian Leiter
as The New York Times misleadingly reports today; indeed, he’s not even one of the ten-most cited members of the GW law faculty. On Professor Turley’s website (the source for the NYT claim), the context was clearer: in Judge Posner’s 2003 book Public Intellectuals, Turley was the second-most cited law professor due almost entirely to references to him in the media. On the other hand, he is poised to soon displace Alan Dershowitz as the “most-cited law professor by Donald Trump”!
Turley is a hack millionaire media prof, not a serious scholar.
Jfc. These idiots complain what a waste of time this all is and then spends 45 minutes of the first two hours demanding roll call votes on obvious passing votes.
