== Types of Cases Granted Certiorari ==

The [[U.S. Supreme Court]] grants ''certiorari'' to a higher percentage of cases that concern [[media]] entities or are likely to obtain more coverage by the [[media]].  For example, it granted ''certiorari'' in the much-publicized case of ''[[Eldred v. Ashford]]'', even though the vote was 7-2 to affirm the decision by the [[D.C. Circuit]] and there was no split in the circuits.  The Court also granted ''certiorari'' in ''[[Newsweek, Inc. v. Fla. Dep't of Revenue]]'', even though it was on appeal from merely an intermediate state court.  The Court grants ''certiorari'' in a relatively high percentage of cases concerning issues relating in some way to sex, such as ''[[Barnes v. Glen Theatre]]''.
