The Volokh Conspiracy The Volokh Conspiracy is a blog co-founded in 2002 by law professor Eugene Volokh , covering legal and political issues from an ideological orientation it describes as "generally libertarian , conservative , centrist , or some mixture of these." Its name is a joking reference to Hillary Clinton's claim in 1998 of a "vast right-wing conspiracy" she believed was persecuting her and husband President Bill Clinton . In 2007, Andy Guess of the Inside Higher Ed wrote that it was "one of the most widely read legal blogs in the United States" and that it "probably has more influence in the field – and more direct impact – than most law reviews." According to Adam Teicholz of The Atlantic , The Volokh Conspiracy, among other blogs, played an important role in influencing the view of Americans against the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act . In 2013, The Volokh Conspiracy appeared in ABA Journal 's "Blawg 100 Hall of Fame". In January 2014, The Volokh Conspiracy migrated to The Washington Post , and was moved behind a paywall in June 2014. The Volokh Conspiracy retained full editorial control over its content. In 2017, it was migrated from the Post to Reason , with Volokh citing as his reasons free access and editorial freedom to include unredacted expletives in quoted material.Notable contributors Eugene Volokh, UCLA School of Law professor, one of its founders Alexander "Sasha" Volokh, professor of law at Emory University School of Law , brother of Eugene Volokh Eugene Kontorovich , Antonin Scalia Law School professor Keith Whittington, William Nelson Cromwell Professor of Politics in the Department of Politics at Princeton University .
