An Arizona State University professor who posted on Twitter for years about social justice issues and recently detailed her fight with COVID-19 was said to have died last week — but she actually never existed.
BethAnn McLaughlin — who announced the made-up professor’s death on July 31 — admitted to The New York Times on Tuesday that she was behind the hoax.
“I take full responsibility for my involvement in creating the @sciencing_bi Twitter account,” she said in a statement through her lawyer.
“My actions are inexcusable. I apologize without reservation to all the people I hurt.”
Since 2016, the anonymous account @Sciencing_Bi had posted frequently about sexual harassment and diversity in science, making connections with other academics online.
The account claimed to be an anthropology professor who had grown up in Alabama and “fled the south because of their oppression of queer folk,” according to the Times.
It also made pointed references to being Native American and began to identify as Hopi earlier this year.

The Nutty Professor
Fat and ugly, too.
Add it to the fake hate crime database.
When your cause is nowhere so you make it relevant..
She apparently had no boyfriend to keep her occupied.
Not enough real life "oppression and bigotry" to meet demand, so you have to make them up. Supply and demand at work.
“...and began to identify as Hopi earlier this year.”
LOL! But “died” of COVID!
This stuff is darn funny!
McLaughlin currently works at MeTooSTEM, the non-profit organisation that she founded in order to advise scientists who are victims of sexual harassment.[5] Seven leaders left the #MeTooSTEM advocacy group in 2019 after complaining about the abrasive style of and lack of transparency by McLaughlin.[17] Two more members in leadership positions of the organisation resigned in 2020 after alleging that they were “bullied” by McLaughlin.

She looks like she could be on an episode on the ID channel.
On the bright side, @sciencing_bi didn’t die after all.
