About TalkLeft
Welcome to TalkLeft, the on-line source for liberal coverage of crime-related political and injustice news.
TalkLeft was created by Denver-based criminal defense attorney Jeralyn Merritt in 2000 as a companion site to CrimeLynx, the criminal defense practitioner's Guide to the Internet. In June, 2002, TalkLeft was converted into a weblog. Since then, it has received more than 37 million visitors and 80 million pageviews.
TalkLeft is not a neutral site. Our mission is to intelligently and thoroughly examine issues, legal cases, candidates and legislative initiatives as they pertain to constitutional rights, particularly those of persons accused of crime.
Talkleft is intended for the public, journalists covering crime-based news and politics, policy makers and of course, the criminal defense community.
TalkLeft was a unique voice in the 2000, 2002, 2004, 2006 and 2008 elections, concentrating on the position of candidates on crime issues and exposing injustices in the criminal justice system and current and past administrations.
TalkLeft is written by Jeralyn Merritt, with frequent contributions by Armando Llorens (Big Tent Democrat.)
Your suggestions and comments are always welcome.
