So I decided to check out white-shoe D.C. law firm Arnold & Porter. They were AstraZeneca's law firm in ZubeGate, and work for Wyeth and many other pharma companies.
But they weren't at all as much fun as Covington & Burling and all their hilarious changes.
To start off, Arnold & Porter were smart enough to do their entries AFTER someone registered, so IP addresses from A&P don't show up. Check here.
Second, the worst I could find as far as changes go, was this.
Arnold & Porter clearly like to mention that "Prominent cases the firm has been involved with include its work as counsel to WorldCom executive Scott Sullivan, CBS in its litigation against Howard Stern, Phillip Morris in the mass tort litigation of the 1990s."
This they didn't like as much; "Prominent cases the firm has been involved with included: counsel to tobacco in the mass tort litigation of the 1990s . . ."
And, of course, "tobacco" is a bad word. But since the editors IP-addresses aren't available we don't even know if Arnold & Porter did these changes. Although that's pretty likely . . .
