Roberts’ Wikipedia entry gets tampered with

Published June 28, 2012 4:00am ET



Chief Justice John Roberts was briefly considered the “17th Chief Traitor of the United States” on his Wikipedia page Thursday after the Supreme Court ruled in favor of Obamacare. The edits, first noticed by Talking Points Memo, were only up on the site briefly before being edited back to the correct “17th Chief Justice of the United States.” Now, the page is in semiprotection mode, meaning that unregistered Wikipedia users can’t make changes to Roberts’ page.
