Lawyers engaging in pretrial publicity on the Internet is a growing concern within the legal profession, as many fear that online rantings, blogs and press releases by attorneys are potentially tainting the jury pool.

Some are also angered by anonymous attorney blogs that criticize the merits of pending cases and bash the lawyers involved.
