Reference Materials – “Cancel Culture: The Latest Attack on Free Speech and Due Process” by Prof. Alan Dershowitz – April 7

.
Normally the "Reference Materials" section each month includes book reviews of our focus book from The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal and The Washington Post.

A review of all search results from Googling “Dershowitz” combined with, as an exact phrase “Cancel Culture” shows that there were no reviews by the NYT, WSJ or WaPo (or, for that matter, hardly any other media outlets).

This despite Prof. Alan Dershowitz being --

1. Perhaps the most celebrated criminal- and constitutional-law expert in the world;

2. The youngest full professor in Harvard Law School history, where he is now the Felix Frankfurter Professor of Law, Emeritus;

3. The author of numerous bestselling books, including “Chutzpah,” “Guilt by Accusation,” “The Best Defense to Reversal of Fortune” (which was made into an Academy Award–winning film), “Defending Israel,” etc., etc., etc.;

4. A trusted adviser of presidents and prime ministers;

5. Defense counsel for many prominent men and women (e.g., Claus von Bülow, NYC Rabbi Avi Weiss against Warsaw Poland Cardinal Jȯzef Glemp re Glemp’s comments when Weiss visited Auschwitz, O.J. Simpson, Jeffrey Epstein, Julian Assange, Harvey Weinstein and Donald Trump, in the first impeachment trial on the narrow issue of whether the U.S. Constitution’s requirement of a “high crime or misdemeanor” can be ignored) -- half of them pro bono; and

6. A life-long Democrat and long-time Board Member of the National American Civil Liberties Union (aka ACLU) -- NB: in June 2018 he wrote an Op-Ed criticizing the ACLU as having become a hyper-partisan organization that is no longer a group of politically diverse individuals sharing a commitment to core civil liberties.

IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THE NEW YORK TIMES, THE WALL STREET JOURNAL AND THE WASHINGTON POST ARE NOW ATTEMPTING TO “CANCEL” PROFESSOR DERSHOWITZ!!!
