Harvard Anti-Israel Law students conspired to blur numerous law firms that have opposed anti-Israel efforts on university campuses, an investigation conducted by the conservative Washington Free Beacon.
The chapter led by Harvard students from the National Lawyers Guild, a left-wing legal defense group with chapters throughout the country, Hero A “Big Law, Big Secrets: Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon” earlier this month on campus. The event, led by a student with a history reported with anti-Israel activity, was destined to “collect data to edit the wikipedia pages of large law firms to reflect the cases that have recently argued.”
Two days later, about a boxing law firm that have a critical bone with the semitism in Harvard and other university campuses, including some that rescinded work sacrifices of Harvard Law students about it, they saw amend their wikipedia pages.
The changes were made on a Wikipedia account linked to another Harvard law student with anti-Israel defense history, the free lighthouse found, and the changes effectively sought that law firms seem to bathe in the eyes of the liberals. Some changes also sought to soften the critical language or anti -Semitism of the campus.

For example, a section on the Wikipedia page for Davis Polk firm, which describes the cases in which he has worked, changed from “racial relations” to “defense of segregation.” The firm’s page also saw the incorporation of a legal section on its “representation of Purdue Pharma”, a pharmaceutical company blamed by the Democrats for playing a role in the opioid crisis.
In 2023, Davis Polk rescinded a job offer that gave a Harvard student about student leadership in the organization of Anti-Israel protests on campus. It was also among the 100 law firms that sent a letter from November 2023 to Harvard urging him to tighten the anti -Semitism of the campus after October 7, 2023 of Hamas, attacks against innocent Israelis.
Jones Day, who also signed the letter, changed his Wikipedia page to include additions on Walmart’s defense against opioid accusations, the rights of the second amendment and “racial Gerrymandering.”

Jenner & Block, another signer of the November Charter, saw a criticism about her representation of Uber in a lawsuit on whether her drivers must consider full -time employees or contractors added to her page.

Meanwhile, the editing story for some of the companies that signed the letter, such as Simpson Tachher & Bartlett, showed efforts for boring language about what happened on the university campuses after Hamas attacks. For example, Harvard’s law retirement account changed “in the midst of a wave of anti -Semitism in the United States”, “in the middle of a wave of protests of the Gaza War in the United States” on the company’s page. In addition, the “anti-Semitic incidents in the elite law faculties” were changed to “pro-palestinian protests in the powers of law of elite US”.
In general, 14 law firm saw changes such as thesis, chording to the investigation of the free beacon. When he was contacted to comment, Harvard University spokesman Jeff Neal said that Wikipedia Edit-A-Thon was organized by an organization led by students “and does not represent the opinions of the Harvard Law Faculty.”
