Eugene Volokh is a professor at UCLA Law School and a very well known blogger and commentator. Volokh has a keen interest in first amendment rights, which is one of the classes he teaches, along with criminal law and copyright law. It is this primary focus which has given Volokh a broad readership, from not just fellow legal bloggers and professors, but those in the political arena as well. On his co-op blog, "Volokh Conspiracy", Volokh delves into intelligent and clearly written discussions on legal topics such as case rulings and decisions, and is a frequent mention of bloggers from both legal and political orientation. The author of Digby's Hullbaloo has recently mentioned Volokh, as has political blogger Glenn Reynolds, and the outspoken professor has even been fodder for legal blogger Ann Bartow's feminist crusade. Continuing down the list of constitutional amendments, Volokh is also the creator of the website "Gun Scholar" a collection of scholarly articles written about the topic of gun control. Volokh makes no secret his passion for these issues and has contributed countless articles for such publications as the National Review Online, Yale Law Journal's online magazine "Pocket Parts", and the Huffington Post. One could do well to find a blogger who writes with more conviction and thoughtfulness as Eugene Volokh, and he stands out as a leading authority on free speech law.
