The blog PopFront published an articlepresenting a fairly detailed argument that Taylor Swift is at the very least unwittingly seen as an icon by the forces of racial hatred and at worst willingly fanning the flames of that base. It’s a thought-provoking piece and should inspire Swift to reconsider a number of her artistic and personal choices as a public figure. But instead it inspired her to engage an attorney to write a ridiculous cease and desist letter. Taylor’s been known to hang out with Barbra Streisand before, and apparently she’s now taking Barbra’s lessons on how to deal with the Internet, because it’s probably safe to say more people have read PopFront’s post in the last 24 hours than did during its initial publication. The unlucky lawyer who’ll be forever attached to Swift’s laughable effort to intimidate PopFront is Venable LLP partner William J. Briggs II. Oh, Taylor, look what you made him do! In his long cease & desist letter to Meghan Herni...

Less than half of the Charleston Law School graduates who sat for the July 2017 South Carolina bar exam passed. A measly 43.53 percent of Charleston Law test takers passed the exam, furthering the school’s downward trend (2016 passage rate: 50.9 percent; 2015 passage rate: 57.4 percent; 2014 passage rate: 65.3 percent). A thoroughly disappointing outing all the way around. The poor performance of Charleston students also pulled down the South Carolina passage rate overall. The state overall passage was 68.29 percent, with the other law school in state — University of South Carolina Law School — posting a 76.22 percent rate (test takers attending other schools passed at a rate of 73.29 percent). According to the Charleston Post and Courier, the dean, Andy Abrams, blames the fact that this year South Carolina moved to the Uniform Bar Exam for the drop in passing test takers. (Of course, that doesn’t account for why the school’s passage rate has been sinking like a ston...
