NYT's Mara Gay: Harvard President Claudine Gay Victimized by Right-Wing Racist Attack
NewsBusters ^ | Mark Finkelstein

Posted on 01/03/2024 8:22:03 AM PST by governsleastgovernsbest

New York Times editorial board member Mara Gay was furious on today's Morning Joe over Harvard's president Claudine Gay (no relation) being forced to resign. Mara Gay proclaimed "This is an attack on diversity. This is an attack on multiculturalism. I don’t have to say that they’re racist, because you can hear and see the racism in the attacks."

In fact, it is the Claudine Gays of the academic world who are the biggest enemies of true diversity -- diversity of ideas. CG's the one, for example, who hounded two Harvard faculty members for failing to toe the DEI line. The DEI crowd are the opposite of pluralists: they seek to cancel those who dare to differ from leftist orthodoxy.

Mara Gay began by denouncing the "unrelenting campaign from the right and from some conservative activists to slander" the Harvard boss, even to "scalp" her. She failed to even mention plagiarism, but had the chutzpah to claim that Claudine was promoting "more scholarly rigor." Riiight. Because nothing says "scholarly rigor" like lifting dozens of quotes from others without attribution.

In a way it is an attack on what she calls “Diversity and Multiculturalism”.

It’s an attack on Nonsense and Bullshit.

It’s not such an attack.

It depends upon the context.

Sure, especially since conservatives think the BLACK woman she plagiarized should get the job.

Lesson taught at Harvard: Cheating , lying , stealing another’s work is ok. So sad.

plagiarism , which she performed, is an act of thievery.
It steals intellectual property.
So, if someone is too dumb to write their own stuff, they turn to plagiarism, also known as “copy and paste” these days.

“She may be a cheat and a liar and has damaged the reputation of the school but we can’t let the ReTrumplicans win.”

as incompetent as the gop is, how could anybody promote the idea that the plagerism of this “person of color” was somehow the fault of a political party? either she did it or she didn’t. which is it?

She resigned as President of the University but she will still stay as a member of the faculty and make the same money she was making as President. This is nothing but theater. It is still a policy of cheat and steal with zero meaningful consequences for it. Harvard delenda est.
