Bill This Quiz Under 'Interrogatories'
Take your chances on Ex Post Facto, our weekly news quiz.

Our first Ex Post Facto news quiz revealed that you paid attention to stories about an autistic lawyer, opioid cases discussed on “60 Minutes” and attorney general nominee Bill Barr.
But artificial intelligence in the legal profession, Robert Duvall in “To Kill a Mockingbird” and the Big Four accounting firms' offices in Asia stumped you.
The graph of your scores would prompt helicopter parents to swoop into the principal's office to complain about the teacher: 28 percent of you got 50 to 59 percent correct, and another 25 percent got 40 to 49 percent right.
Should we ease up? Surely that would offend you—and us. Here is Ex Post Facto #2. Good luck, and let me know if you have any thoughts or suggestions. I'll give a shoutout to anyone who recommends a question we use. I'm at [email protected].
