Liptak Takes Greenhouse's Gig at NYTimes

For the first time in decades, The New York Times has a new Supreme Court reporter.

Adam Liptak, the Times’ national legal reporter, is taking over the position Linda Greenhouse–who covered the beat, off and on, for 30 years—vacated in February after taking a $300,000 buyout. Before Mr. Liptak was a reporter, he was a lawyer for the paper. He joined the newsroom in 2002.
