DEALS
Glass Entertainment Group has optioned “Supreme Inequality: The Supreme Court’s 50-Year Battle for a More Unjust America,” by author Adam Cohen, to adapt into a TV docuseries. The book looks at the most significant Supreme Court rulings since the Nixon era and exposes how rarely the Court has veered away from its agenda of promoting inequality. Per the logline: “Many of the greatest successes of the Warren Court of the 1950s and 1960s, in areas such as school desegregation, voting rights, and protecting workers, have been abandoned in favor of rulings that protect corporations and privileged Americans, who tend to be white, wealthy, and powerful. As the nation comes to grips with new Trump-appointed justices, Cohen proves beyond doubt that the modern Court has been one of the leading forces behind the nation’s soaring level of economic inequality, and that an institution revered as a source of fairness has been systematically making America less fair.” Executive producers will include Nancy Glass and Eric Neuhaus from GEG, as well as Cohen.
