In his recent piece for Court Watch, a news site covering interesting, yet often overlooked federal court filings, Lawfare Associate Editor Peter Beck wrote about the Middle District of Georgia, which is “filled with rich news stories that even a few years ago would have been quickly reported” but which “now sits in a so-called ‘news desert,' a place that is largely devoid of even a single newspaper, let alone a reporter dedicated to its federal court.” Out of Georgia's 17 counties without a single local news source, 12 fall within the Middle District of Georgia's jurisdiction. Unfortunately, this district is not alone in this regard, writes Beck, but rather “part of a broader trend of the death of local news, leaving community members uninformed about important developments in their neighborhoods and leading to less and less transparency in the legal system.”For today's episode, Lawfare Managing Editor Tyler McBrien sits down with Beck, as well as Seamus Hughes, a senior research faculty at the University of Nebraska Omaha's National Counterterrorism Innovation, Technology, and Education Center (NCITE) and the founder of Court Watch, to discuss what happens when “dockets die in darkness.”To receive ad-free podcasts, become a Lawfare Material Supporter at www.patreon.com/lawfare.

In this thought-provoking episode, we sit down with Carson Holloway, a distinguished Professor of Political Science at the University of Nebraska Omaha and a Washington Fellow at the Claremont Institute's Center for the American Way of Life. Holloway, an accomplished author, delves into the complex dynamics of press accountability in modern America, drawing from his essay, "Rethinking Libel: Defamation and Press Accountability."Together, we revisit the landmark 1964 New York Times v. Sullivan case that established the malice standard in libel law, exploring its far-reaching implications on political discourse. Holloway offers a compelling critique of the current state of media liberties, arguing that unchecked freedom to defame can erode the very foundations of democratic debate.Join us as we explore potential remedies to this imbalance and consider how the Founders' views on free speech and freedom of the press might inform today's challenges. This episode is essential listening for anyone concerned with the integrity of public discourse and the role of the media in a healthy democracy.
