Despite the title of the blog post, the poster's gripe isn't really with
Wikipedia; it's with a book that came out in 1973.
Tom Clark of course isn't living today, though he was in 1973.
FYI, the veracity of the disputed quotation by Truman about Clark has been
debated by Supreme Court historians for years. This is not a new issue by
any means.

I have
not searched the history. The title of the blog seems to exploit
our low reputation.
