February 24, 2004 - ABC Radio - The Mitch Albom Show:
Rob Scott is interviewed about President George W. Bush's decision to endorse a constitutional amendment defining marriage as the union between a man and a woman. Mr. Scott provides legal commentary about what is required to pass a constitutional amendment and the potential obstacles that supporters of the amendment may face.

August 19, 2003 - WB-33 News at Nine: Rob Scott speaks with Heather Behrens about the Dwayne Goodrich appeal. Goodrich, a former Dallas Cowboy, was sentenced today to 7 1/2 years in prison and fined $10,000 for killing two Plano men when he struck them with his BMW. The men were rescuing a driver from a burning car when Goodrich hit them on Interstate 35 and then fled the scene. Goodrich intends to challenge a state statute that precluded the jury from considering probation in the sentencing phase of his trial.

June 17, 2003 - KRLD-AM: Rob Scott provides commentary on the motion filed by former Roe v. Wade plaintiff, Norma McCorvey. Ms. McCorvey filed a motion in the federal district court in Dallas seeking to re-open the landmark 1973 abortion case and have the judgment vacated due to changes in factual conditions and law in the 30 years since the original ruling. Mr. Scott believes that this motion is politically motivated and has little to no chance of success.

June 17, 2003 - KDAF-TV WB News at 9: Rob Scott speaks with Heather Behrens about the motion filed in Dallas' federal district court by Norma McCorvey. Ms. McCorvey, former plaintiff in 1973's Roe v. Wade abortion case, has changed her stance on the topic of abortion and seeks to have the case re-opened and the judgment vacated. McCorvey claims that there is new evidence that abortion is harmful to women, including affidavits of over 1000 women who claim to have had bad experiences after exercising their right to have an abortion. Mr. Scott believes that this motion has no legal foundation, and that while the evidence McCorvey is citing may be important to the political debate on abortion rights, it is irrelevant to the question presented by the motion.

May 28, 2003 - KLIF-AM, Ankarlo Mornings: Rob Scott provides commentary on the Greenpeace protests at ExxonMobil. Greenpeace disrupted the ExxonMobil headquarters in Irving early on May 27 with protesters chaining themselves to police-style vans and blocking the site entrance. A banner was hung on the roof declaring the site a "global warming crime scene," and protesters illegally entered to building to charge Exxon officials with an unacceptable lack of action against the global warming problem. Mr. Scott says that when protesters willfully commit crimes such as trespassing during their protests, they are going far beyond their First Amendment rights. He adds that criminal actions during a protest are not only not protected under the Constitution, but are just as punishable as any other crime.

May 28, 2003 - The Mitch Albom Show: Rob Scott provides commentary about free speech rights and protest zones in a debate with Ken Paulson from the First Amendment Center. Universities across the nation set off First Amendment watchdogs when they established "protest zones" in an attempt to curb disruption from recent on-campus protests. Mr. Scott does not believe that the imposition of protest zones presents a threat to First Amendment Rights. He says that protest zones are not a new idea. They allow protesters to exercise their freedom of speech while decreasing safety concerns and the possibility of disruption.
