After reading this I envision the end scenes of "it's a wonderful life" with Stewart running thru town shouting that Taylor isn't coming home for Christmas and everybody celebrates.

Plagiarism is serious business in academic settings. That gets you thrown out.

In the video, she called Ackman's wife an academic, but afaik she's transitioned to private business now, so it's not directly relevant to her job anymore. Like it's not great, but at least she is not the leader of an academic institution like Gay.

Gamergate will be old enough to be in 4th grade talking about Skibid Toilet with his friends before going on Fortnite, and people are STILL malding over it.

That shit broke these fuckers.

I couldn't make it a full minute. She is truly terrible and her attempt to come across like a 16 year old's first Tik Tok video is painful.

I couldn't make it a full minute. She is truly terrible and her attempt to come across like a 16 year old's first Tik Tok video is painful.

Here's a transcript to save you and others the pain.

What's happening right now with billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman is really worrying, and I think it shows how the uber-wealthy and powerful can influence the press. For weeks, Ackman has been waging a really public and aggressive campaign against former Harvard president Claudine Gay. His whole beef with her started because he felt like she didn't take a strong enough stance against antisemitism in the wake of a bunch of pro Palestinian protests on Harvard's campus. So he led this charge accusing her of plagiarism in this Gamergate-style harassment campaign to get her ousted.

This manufactured outrage campaign was then amplified by a bunch of far right extremist trolls and outlets like The New York Times, which failed to cover the controversy with really any notable context. It all got really racist and really misogynistic really quickly, and ultimately Ackman's campaign was successful and Gay was forced to step down. But tons of people have called Ackman out, saying basically the only reason you're pretending to care about ethics in academia citations is because you've wanted to oust Harvard's first black female president for ostensibly not being supportive enough of Israel.

So, journalists at Business Insider began to look into the work of Ackman's wife, who herself is a really famous academic at MIT. And sure enough, they found multiple instances of the type of plagiarism that Ackman had accused Claudine Gay of. Ackman quickly reversed course and started to say that actually sloppy citations don't really count as plagiarism. He said it was actually a quote near certainty that most academic authors will fail to cite all their sources correctly, and that it quote didn't seem like a crime to him, which is the whole thing that people had been saying the whole time he was coming for Claudine Gay.

What's really messed up and worrying though is that now Axel Springer, this big media conglomerate that owns Business Insider, is opening an investigation into the article about Bill Ackman's wife. And even though Business Insider's reporting was 100% factual, Axel Springer is now instituting a review process on any stories related to Ackman. As many people have pointed out, Axel Springer is actually majority owned by KKR, a private equity firm that Ackman is really friendly with and whose owners he's actually cited in recent tweets. So now it seems like Ackman is using his power and influence as a billionaire to shut down critical reporting on things that he doesn't like.

I totally agree with the journalist Jacob Silverman who said this is how billionaires flex their power in the media. I also really liked what investigative reporter Julia Black said, which is reporting on the ultra wealthy is scary stuff and those brave enough to do it and do it well and responsibly need to know that they have support from their media organizations. So far Business Insider's editor-in-chief is completely standing by their reporting. But I think this whole incident shows the really sneaky and insidious ways that these powerful billionaire men will try to leverage their power and influence over the funding of these giant news corporations in order to influence their coverage.

I hope that news organizations don't just learn that they need to stand up to these powerful billionaires. I hope that they realize they shouldn't be covering these manufactured outrage campaigns and Gamergate-style harassment campaigns against women in power neutrally. And the most important thing news organizations can do in the midst of these types of public outcries and controversies is have the reporters backs.

That came off like a bad audition for a remake of "Heathers". Needless to say, no callback.

If you mean Gay its stupidly hard to fire her from her professorship.
The president position is on behalf of the committee so its really easy to lose that title but actual tenured professor comes with a lot of first amendment protections both because of in house protections and first amendment implications being a government position.

Thank you, it's a lot more readable than watchable.

It's impressive how much she lies as well. It's rare that in a fight between journalists, heads of academia and billionaires I will take a side. Taylor's rant though boils down to the same one she uses every time.

"You can't tell me no or point out that I'm lying, that's HATRED AND MURDER!"

That's nice Taylor. Dress and act your age, not your mental age, and people might give you real work again.

Usually they throw it in but only as a constellation of totally serious other imaginary diseases like Ehlers-Danlos, Complex PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder (based on complete fiction about what that is), Crohn's disease, gluten insensitivity (where they will claim celiac when they don't have it) and what the flavor of the week is. Somehow down at the bottom of the list you'll have fibro my algae.

Bitch is too lazy to even munch properly smdh.

She keeps saying how it's "really worrying".

She's alleging that Ackman got Claudine Gay fired with the help of racism and sexism and his billions of dollars.

If that's all accurate, then why the hell is she hedging her bets with "really worrying"? If that's true, that sounds fucking horrifying. It's not just "really worrying".

I'm guessing it's either:

1. She doesn't actually think Claudine Gay getting fired was all that unreasonable. She really did plagiarize and so all the racism and sexism claims are kinda made up, or at least were unnecessary for her to be fired.
2. Getting someone fired by stirring up shit in the media is actually totally OK. It's only worrying now because the "right" (I guess?) managed to pull it off. It's worrying that their monopoly on unpoliced shit flinging is starting to crumble.

 

[InteracialBowelSyndrome]

Tay-Tay defending plagiarism? Makes ya wonder if she's ever copied anything. How would the Washington Compost react to one of their journalists being caught doing that?

Skeletal yet jowly. Looks like she lost weight, probably because people kept making fun of her face.

I think she also considers herself part of the elite and if a hedge fund manager has to flex on an Ivy League president, it’s the power she wishes she had so she’s not going to go that hard in the paint to fight against it because in her mind she wants to wield that kind of influence. So she does her best deeb goncern act and hopes she can pull that off someday because she’s totally deserving of that kind of power.
