Personally, if I were a standards editor at The New York Times, I'm not sure I would have given Josh Blackman a platform to complain about being described as a "conservative" law professor, and definitely would not have told him how smart and correct he is to do so www.nytimes.com/2026/10/22/i...

This is so funny. All Josh wanted to do was write a The New York Times Listened to Me and Said I Was Right post, and you gave it to him. Rube shit. Embarrassing.

Yes, I really enjoyed the part where they discuss the scourge of "dial-a-quote" professors who will do anything to get mentioned by a reporter, because it was like, man, do you really not understand that that is all that Josh Blackman is and has ever been??
The funny part is that by any measure, liberal or conservative, Josh is an outlier.
