I am currently re-reading Peter Arenella's "The Perils of TV Legal Punditry" published by the University of Chicago Legal Forum.
He wrote this in 1998, when the problem was just getting started.
(I'm taking notes as I read because, you know, decades of habit.)
It's here:

He predicted what the scholars I quoted in my pinned series say about the "cottage industry" of TV lawyering.
