A federal judge dismissed the defamation charges in a lawsuit filed by Harvard Business School professor Francesca Gino against the University, dealing a major blow to the embattled professor's efforts to rehabilitate her reputation and win millions from the school.
In a Wednesday ruling, U.S. District Court Judge Myong J. Joun partially granted Harvard's motion to dismiss the lawsuit, writing that Gino had failed to plausibly allege that the University defamed her, violated her privacy, or unlawfully interfered with her relationships with publishers.
Still, Joun allowed one key plank of the lawsuit to proceed: Gino's claim that Harvard breached its contract with her by subjecting her to disciplinary measures in violation of its own disciplinary and tenure policies.
Gino was accused of data fraud in 2021 by data investigation blog Data Colada, which said she falsified data across several academic studies. Harvard later conducted an internal investigation, placing Gino on administrative leave and initiating steps to revoke her tenure.
In response, Gino — who has denied all allegations of misconduct — sued the University and Data Colada co-authors Uri Simonsohn, Leif D. Nelson, and Joseph P. Simmons, alleging that they conspired to damage her reputation and career.
Gino also claimed that she was unfairly targeted because of her gender in violation of Title IX regulations, alleging that male professors accused of similar conduct were not subjected to the same level of scrutiny. Harvard did not move to dismiss the claim of Title IX discrimination...
However, Joun dismissed Gino's claims against the professors behind Data Colada in full — a win for academics who said the lawsuit could have a chilling effect on efforts to fight research misconduct.

Boom boom, out go the lights.
Yet another Ivy League fraud.
I saw a video on that yesterday. In fact, I think that’s the one I saw. I had never heard of this case.
It’s comical. It looks like people sometimes think that if they just keep fighting you will give up, even if they are clearly wrong and you are right. This is awesome. Happy ending...
Does this mean she’s free on Friday nights now? Asking for a friend...
It’s kinda funny though. If you call a prostitute a whore publicly, can she sue you for defamation if she IS a prostitute?🤣
“Does this mean she’s free on Friday nights now? Asking for a friend...”
That was my first thought too - definitely NOT GUILTY!
Note that Harvard still has to defend itself against the charge that it singled Gino out for especially harsh treatment. Could open a can of worms, Harvey may offer a financial settlement for “an undisclosed sum.”
But the dismissal of the charges against Data Colada are terrific.
There are few quicker ways to end an academic career than this. I'm sure Harvard has their ducks in a row and did due diligence in their defense before going forward. Harvard would not do this or take on the AAUP without a solid case. She knew better and is going to pay the price.
Yeah. The Data Colada part was what I found the most interesting. Too bad Trump can’t sue the MSM for their singling him out.😎
To the Harvard board, her crime was not that she faked data, it's that she got caught.
The President of Harvard was forced to resign when it was shown that many of her writings were plagiarized. These days professors are as ethically challenged as politicians. All taxpayer supported tenure at universities and colleges should end. Let them prove their worth the way all Americans in the private sector must do every day.
I AM that friend! Let me heal her broken heart.
They did a year-long investigation, and produced a final report that was 1300 pages in length.
Some of you people are freaks...
Duh, ya know, Hitler was kinda HOT. Not Guilty!
Holy moly,
It just occurred to me why some people might deny the holocaust....EWE!
