Tonight's edition of SeeBS leftist propaganda presented their whining about the calls for Harvard President Gay to resign as a result of her House committee testimony. SeeBS showed faculty supporters coming to her side.

But SeeBS didn't even hint about the plagiarism scandal that has been revealed against Gay. It was not reported; therefore to SeeBS woketardian zombies, it never happened.

As if it wasn't obvious before, the SeeBS enemedia (including the propaganda-anchor), and their DNA, have no redeeming social value.

Again, this is a resume enhancer for the dems. We now have a serial plagiarist in the White House!

How things work at the elite environs of Harvard.

There is ample evidence that “diversity hire,” Claudine Gay, who was
promoted to be president of Harvard, plagiarized her doctoral dissertation.

Even more amazingly, her PhD is actually from Harvard,
and Harvard awarded her a “best dissertation” prize for it!

Harvard then hired her on the faculty and later
made the DEI hire Harvard’s first female president.

Astoundingly, she plagiarized from her own PhD advisor. So someone at
Harvard knew she did it, they then graduated her, hired her and promoted her.

She is untouchable. Black, woman and lib.

Yep...I'll bet plenty of those around her knew about this, but none could or would speak up about it.

The PhD committee should have recognized chunky writing in Gay’s dissertation. Anyone at that level has developed a writing style.

Thus, the committee should have flagged her dissertation and brought her to answer in her oral. The committee has blame.

Gay’s ‘lifting’ of other works without attribution is an intentional act. She surely had written other papers in her academic education. One of the most substantial rules is to assign attribution to ‘borrowed’ passages. ‘Lifting’ anything more than an paragraph is frowned upon; ‘borrowing’ more than that is plagiaristic.

Good job by Rufo. We need conservative intellectuals like him.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Exactly. Or her students as part of their “assignment”.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Black, female, Liberal. Off the radar in 3, 2, 1...

"Astoundingly, she plagiarized from her own PhD advisor. So someone at Harvard knew she did it, they then graduated her, hired her and promoted her."

Members of the Harvard Board of Overseers who supported Gay in elevating her to the President's position should admit their misfeasance, malfeasance, and nonfeasance and then resign.

So Harvard is basically a PHD diploma mill.

I have seen that “HUGE” man’s face somewhere before. Can’t put my finger on it. A younger Al Roker?

[dead]

She's either a plagiarist or she isn't, the Jewishness (or not) of her accusers is irrelevant.

[Liz]

Most plagiarists turn out to be serial thieves, like Biden.
He engaged in small-potatoes plagiarism and quickly moved
up to stealing millions of dollars, then an entire election.

The plagiarist has to keep upping the ante b/c they got where they
are dishonestly and need to stay there using any means possible.

[Liz]

No question.

[Shady]

So she is following in “Joe’s” slipper steps.

[TomGuy]

Sheesh, if you’re gonna plagiarize, you’re supposed to re-write it in your own words! Or at least change a couple of words.

That assumes that she constructed the document herself.

Papermills have existed for decades and some have employed ghost writers to compose documents. {It is a lucrative business.}

[monkeyshine]

Fair point.
