eh, he’s okay. he puts out a lot of slop content like “REAL LAWYER reacts to $MOVIE” and “r/LegalAdvice DISASTERS!” with those annoyingly exaggerated YouTuber faces. I guess you have to play to the Algorithm, but slop is slop.

I like Liz Dye’s legal analysis when she appears on his channel to discuss current events, but I wish I could just watch her directly, rather than suffering through LegalEagle’s bombastic and superficial framing to pump up viewer engagement.

Even the “slop” is quality content. Media colors our understanding of things, and for better or worse the general understanding of legal proceedings comes from things like movies and r/LegalAdvice disasters.

He provides informed and informative reviews of common level misconceptions through those videos, meeting people where they are to educate them about the facts. When a piece of media gets it right, and when it’s so off that you’d get tackled by the bailiff, are valuable insights to the layperson.

You mean like repeatedly making videos about the Trump administration risking his own business and dare I say well being?

  the content is better than I remember, having watched the video you linked. I guess I’m just cranky about the particular way that thumbnails and video titles have converged on YouTube.

    Hate the game, not the player. Any channel that doesn’t do this shit is doomed to obscurity.

He hasn’t put out any videos like that in years. It’s all about recent legal issues/cases the past several years.

  He’s been just outright “yeah this is fucked up and the Trump administration is violating the law but no one cares.” Not sane washing anything - constantly reminding us that this is not normal or legal or ethical. Everything he’s been doing for the last few months has been A+++++++++
