"Professor Tobias' hobby seems to be getting himself quoted about anything and everything in news stories, Cavin wrote to staffers."
"Professor Tobias often emails reporters offering his expert opinion on stories of the day and while I don't presume to judge his expertise in legal matters, the professor is certainly an expert at getting himself quoted, Cavin said."
"It's a free world, right? I don't have much to say about it, Tobias told Mediaite. I guess I'm supposed to be complimented by it."
NPR standards chief Tony Cavin instructed reporters that they must stop repeatedly quoting University of Richmond law professor Carl Tobias after 2025. Tobias appeared 77 times on the NPR website this year and also frequently appears in other outlets such as The New York Times and The Washington Post. Cavin noted that Tobias often emails reporters offering his expert opinion and that he has become highly effective at securing quotes across many topics. Examples of topics Tobias weighed in on include President Trump’s lawsuits, Harvard disputes, and a Paramount settlement. Tobias responded lightheartedly, calling it a free world and taking the notice as a kind of compliment.
