A New York Times opinion writer urged the pro-abortion activists
protesting outside the house of Supreme Court justice Brett
Kavanaugh to escalate their illegal protests.
Lindsay Crouse, who earned notoriety after disclosing that her
ex-boyfriend is dating Lady Gaga in a 2020 op-ed, said in a May
8 tweet that protesters should target the Chevy Chase Club
because that way, she said, their cries "will reach not just
Kavanaugh but also Justice Roberts—both are members." She
deleted the tweet, but only after it elicited praise from
activists who shared the address of the club across the platform.
There is a near consensus among legal experts that targeted
protests against federal judges are criminal. A 1950 law
expressly prohibits any picketing "with the intent of
interfering with, obstructing, or impeding the administration of
justice, or with the intent of influencing any judge."
Times guidelines bar staff from "posting anything on social
media that damages our reputation for neutrality and fairness."
Crouse’s posts come just over a month after the paper’s
executive editor, Dean Baquet, issued a memo to staff pressing
them to spend less time on Twitter and said its extensive use
would "damage our journalistic reputations." That memo was
prompted by internal concerns that the conduct of some staff may
interfere with the ability for others, such as court reporters,
to cultivate sources or gain access.
Baquet also pressed staff in 2017 to exercise transparency after
removing a social media post and "quickly acknowledge the
deletion in a subsequent tweet." Crouse did no such thing.
Neither the Times nor Crouse responded to a request for comment.
Crouse’s tweets are the latest example of bubbling tensions
between staff who want to openly advocate for their political
views and management who wish for the paper to appear impartial.
The Times, which has been the epicenter of the debate in legacy
media over objectivity, fired editor Lauren Wolfe last year
after she tweeted that she felt "chills" after seeing President
Joe Biden’s plane land.
Aside from columns asking questions such as, "How do you compare
yourself with Lady Gaga?" after she dates your ex, Crouse has
written about how former Supreme Court justice Ruth Bader
Ginsburg served as her "fitness idol." Her focus for the Times
opinion section is "gender, ambition, and power," according to
her author bio.
Since the leak of the draft Dobbs decision, conservative
justices have been the target of heated protests outside their
homes. On Wednesday, the Washington Free Beacon reported on an
internal DHS memo outlining threats from pro-abortion extremists
against members of the court and clergy.
"Domestic violence extremists (DVEs) and criminal actors have
adopted narratives surrounding abortion rights to encourage
violence, likely increasing the threat to government, religious,
and reproductive health care personnel and facilities and
ideological opponents," the memo reads. The memo later states
that most of the threats against justices and their staff are
circulating on social media.
Earlier this month the Senate passed a bipartisan bill
bolstering security for members of the Supreme Court and their
families. That legislation has since stalled in the House, with
Democratic leadership refusing to provide a date for an expected
vote.
