But for the Olympics, it would have been hard for most anyone to miss news by and about Justice Scalia this past weekend. SCOTUSBlog has the round-up -- the Fox News interview with Justice Scalia; coverage of the interview from Fox News and the WSJ Washington Wire; coverage of the health care decision dissent in Bloomberg and the Washington Wire; a summary of his health care decision remarks in USA Today; and the justice discussing his new book on C-Span’s Q&A.
And in the current clash of judicial titans Scalia and Posner, Justice Scalia pushed back in the Fox interview on Judge Posner's criticism of his dissent in Arizona v. United States. Above The Law couldn't resist calling this comment a "benchslap":
He’s a court of appeals judge, isn’t he? He doesn’t sit in judgment of my opinions as far as I’m concerned.
