Harvard Law Review Hunts For Leaker in Wake of Free Beacon Report
1st May 2025
As the Trump administration launches multiple probes of the Harvard Law Review in the wake of a Washington Free Beacon report on the journal’s race-based policies, the law review itself will be conducting its own investigation—not into the evidence of discrimination revealed by dozens of documents, but into who leaked those documents to the Free Beacon.
The journal’s top editors asked members of the law review last week to come forward with any information that might help identify the leaker, writing, “The information contained in the article should not have been shared.”
“We are looking into the matter,” the editors said Friday in an email. “Our inboxes and offices are open to anyone with information about these recent events. We will update you with developments.”
