Confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Justices have been wildly dramatic (Kavanaugh) and surprisingly calm (Jackson). What\\u2019s to account for the difference? Is it all just about the nominee\\u2014or is there something else behind it? In this episode of Polilogue\\u2019s special season on the Supreme Court we dive into how the media covers the confirmation process.

It\\u2019s not as simple as it seems\\u2014and not as easy to explain. How does the media do in explaining the process and helping the public understand what\\u2019s at stake? We also take a look at how the changing nature of the confirmation process has shaped media coverage.
