Bill Moyers Journal takes a hard look at how campaign cash in judicial races may sway America’s courts. The Journal revisits the 1999 FRONTLINE special “Justice for Sale” which reported on the growing concern — even among Supreme Court justices themselves — that campaign contributions may be corrupting the judicial process.
