The book explores the complex relationship between the Supreme Court and the press, highlighting their interdependence since the Constitution's framing. It examines the Court's historical disregard for the First Amendment, its gradual support for press rights since the 1960s, and ongoing issues with public access to its proceedings. Mathewson argues that to retain its legitimacy in the digital era, the Court must improve transparency and allow greater media access, challenging its current restrictive practices regarding courtroom coverage and audio recordings.
