Judge not blind to Microsoft’s faults

url “Whenever Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson
rolled his eyes at Microsoft lawyers during
the company’s trial or interrupted their
witnesses, most courtroom watchers realized
he was losing patience with defendants in
one of the most celebrated antitrust trials in
U.S. history.

But what shocked legal observers was that Jackson also was putting his
disdain into words, in secret interviews with a few selected journalists
who spoke with him before he had ruled in the case.”
