"Controversy Surrounding Supreme Court Justice Alito's Secret Benefactor"
TL;DR Summary
The Wall Street Journal's editorial board defended Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito and his previously undisclosed fishing trip with a GOP donor in an editorial, calling ProPublica's report "a non-scandal built on partisan spin." Alito came under scrutiny after a ProPublica investigation revealed that the justice had taken an expensive and previously undisclosed luxury fishing trip with prominent conservative donor Paul Singer in 2008. The editorial board lambasted ProPublica for its "typically slanted" reporting alleging that Alito had violated the court's ethics policy of disclosing gifts.
