It seems what he wrote was accurate. What problem do you have with it, specifically?
For the supreme court, 3 (33%) are Jewish, and 4 (44%) non-Jewish white.
Of the major news organization heads, 4 (27%) are Jewish, and 53% non-Jewish white.
Of the top TV and Hollywood heads, 7 (28%) are Jewish, and 60% non-Jewish white.
So it turns out, looking at only non-Jewish whites, they're more often than not under-represented.
Surprisingly nativist rhetoric coming from the Guardian.
Tangential, but this is highly misleading. Jewish students are still over 5x over-represented, and non-Jewish white students are 0.6x under-represented, according to Harvard's own diversity report and polling done by Jewish organizations: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23764422
Always condemn 'the enemy', even when you agree with them. Anything else could be interpreted as a sign of disloyalty.
Jewish: 14.0% vs 2.6% (5.38x)
Asian American: 25.3% vs 5.3% (4.77x)
Native Hawaiian: 0.6% vs 0.2% (3.00x)
Native American: 1.8% vs 0.7% (2.57x)
African American: 14.3% vs 12.7% (1.13x)
Hispanic or Latino: 12.2% vs 17.6% (0.69x)
non-Jewish white: 33.0% vs 58.9% (0.56x)
