Editor's Note
Benjamin Wittes Wed, Jan 3, 2018, 6:52 PM
Earlier today, Lawfare published an article that was significantly beneath its editorial standards. I take full responsibility for this decision and, on behalf of myself and Lawfare’s board of directors, wish to explain the circumstances of the decision to publish it and the steps we are taking to ensure that such a lapse does not happen again.

Help Us Build a Lawfare App
Benjamin Wittes Tue, Dec 12, 2017, 7:00 AM
We are currently studying the problem of how to build a maximally useful Lawfare mobile app—and our tech team is looking to interview readers to figure out how people are using the site and what functionality people need. As we did when we built Lawfare's website, we are keen for reader involvement in the process to make sure the product we develop is as responsive to actual reader need as possible. If you are willing to be contacted by our tech folks for an interview, please fill out this short survey.

Announcing a New Partnership with Foreign Policy

We are excited to announce a new partnership between Lawfare and Foreign Policy magazine. Starting today, FP will be launching a new “[email protected]” feed, featuring analysis and commentary from Lawfare contributors. Some of this material will be cross-posted from Lawfare. Some of it, by contrast, will be material special to the FP, which Lawfare will curate.

The Lawfare Readership Survey 2017
Susan Hennessey, Quinta Jurecic, Benjamin Wittes Thu, Apr 20, 2017, 5:19 PM
It's been a while since we did a readership survey. It's not that we haven't cared what you think. We've just been busy.
But it's time to do it again. We've got big plans—plans for partnerships, plans for new services, and plans for further expansion of the site. We've also got a lot of new readers, and we want to make sure that we are both serving our core readership and serving the many folks who have discovered the site over the past year.

April Fool’s Day Joke Canceled
Jane Chong, Susan Hennessey, Quinta Jurecic, Benjamin Wittes Sat, Apr 1, 2017, 10:02 AM
Lawfare will be breaking with tradition by not posting an April Fool’s Day joke this year. We just couldn’t come up with anything so silly and clearly factually inaccurate that there was no chance anyone at the White House would take it seriously. We didn't want to risk sparking a crisis.
