Unclaimed Territory
Glenn Greenwald launched Unclaimed Territory in 2005 as a political and legal blog. He is credited with breaking numerous legal affairs stories on his blog, and in 2006, he won the Koufax Award for best new blog. Unclaimed Territory now resides at Salon.com.
Author: Glenn Greenwald has done what many bloggers and lawyers dream about—he made the leap from full-time law practice to full-time blogging. He is a former constitutional lawyer in New York City who practiced at Wachtell, Lipton, Rosen & Katz and then at Greenwald Christoph. In 2006, he published How Would a Patriot Act? Defending American Values from a President Run Amok and in 2007 came out with A Tragic Legacy: How a Good v. Evil Mentality Destroyed the Bush Presidency.
