Anchorage is beautiful this time of year, but, alas, my interview discussing the Exxon Shipping v. Baker case was over the phone. Not sure when they’ll run the clip, but probably tonight, since the decision has a good chance of being issued tomorrow.
Update: Here’s the story.
I’m scheduled to be one of the guests on the popular Washington, D.C. public radio show today, during the 12 to 1 p.m. segment. We’ll be discussing BlackBerry legal issues, in particular, the degree to which employers are at risk of big retroactive wage-hour suits if they issue the communications devices to workers and then require (or even permit) them to use the devices for work purposes outside their normal hours. Our BlackBerry posts from this website can be found here. A while back I dismissed as unlikely, in the Times (U.K.), the notion of suits over BlackBerry “addiction” (truncated version here).
Thirteen words of a taped interview of me discussing Barack Obama’s Senate record on tort reform appeared on ABC’s Weekend Good Morning America Sunday. Since they didn’t identify me by name, it probably won’t increase blog traffic.
I also wrote about this for Point of Law in December 2006. For more on Barack Obama, click the tag.
I was a guest on the Houston radio station this morning discussing personal responsibility and our propensity to litigate. A few recent cases possibly on point: “Inmate Sues Jail, Blames It for His Escapes“; five of her friends as well as the inevitable bar sued after college student’s fatal alcohol binge; and lawyer gambles away client money at the tables, then sues casinos for not stopping her. (Corrected original post title which got the call letters wrong).
I was a guest on Ron Smith’s Baltimore-based show, with Bruce Elliott hosting, this afternoon to discuss the possible settlement between the state of Virginia and families of slain Virginia Tech students (coverage: CNN, Washington Post, AP).
This morning I was a guest on WTKK’s “Michael Graham Show” out of Boston to discuss the Spitzer scandal. I was also the guest of Mike Rosen on Denver’s KOA for a discussion of the case of the New York lawyer who’s suing casinos for $20 million after her out-of-control gambling ruined her career.
I was on Marcus Lush’s Radio Live talk show out of Auckland this morning, discussing American employment law. My book The Excuse Factory: How Employment Law Is Paralyzing the American Workplace is available on Amazon.
Scheduled for broadcast today at the strange hour of 11:07 AM to 1:11 PM Eastern. A webcast is also available. See also our January 5 post.
A podcast and webcast are also available on the AEI website.
I am told that I am scheduled to be on the KPFA Morning Show 7:10 am Pacific time to talk about the Mukasey nomination.
I’m scheduled to join Glenn Beck today on his CNN Headline News show, on the 2:30-3:00 p.m. Eastern segment, to discuss the Lynne Stewart/Hofstra affair. P.S. Turned out it was a taping rather than live show, so air times will vary from the above.
Ed Morrissey of the Captain’s Quarters Blog interviews me about the Stoneridge case and argument, and about Sarbanes-Oxley. Morrissey comments further about the case.
I’m scheduled to join Fox News tomorrow (Tues.) morning around 9:40 a.m. Eastern to discuss the Lynne Stewart/Hofstra affair.
I’m scheduled to be on Bloomberg TV at 5 pm Eastern talking about the Stoneridge case. See also Point of Law October 6 for more links.
I’ll be on the BBC World Service today to discuss (more).
I’m scheduled to go on shortly after 6 pm Eastern, and Walter is scheduled at 7 pm Eastern on the popular national radio show. Find your local station on-line.
I was a guest this hour on the BBC Radio 4 evening program “PM” with Eddie Mair, discussing the Roy Pearson lost-pants case. While most of our items on this site inevitably come from the USA, note that we have a section devoted to items from the UK as well.
I’m not saying anything that any regular blog-reader doesn’t already know, and I could well be bumped if Britney Spears goes shopping, but I taped an interview about the U.S. Attorney firings scheduled to be on CNN’s 7pm (Eastern) news if you have a morbid curiosity what I look and sound like on tv when I have a cold and only four hours of sleep.
Update: Ended up on the cutting room floor, apparently. Hope no one sat through an hour of Wolf Blitzer on my account.
