Justice Scalia on 60 Minutes April 27

The Blog of Legal Times reports Scalia Goes on '60 Minutes' - Voluntarily. "Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia will be featured on the CBS News show "60 Minutes" April 27 in connection with the publication the next day of the new book he has co-authored, called Making Your Case: The Art of Persuading Judges. Correspondent Lesley Stahl has spent considerable time interviewing Scalia in recent weeks about his life and career — not just the book."

"In the life of the Court and the career of Justice Scalia, this is a remarkable, Nixon-goes-to-China moment. No justice has excoriated the news media like Scalia has, and more than once he has said that judges are not supposed to be highly visible figures in the media."
