There is no way this is an accurate statement from a reporter. Has the
liberal media become so desperate to protect their bad actors that they
will try to explain how serious infractions that lead to one’s termination
are trivial matters? If this was an attempt at gaslighting, it was
abysmal. There’s no need to split hairs here—and doing so makes you look
like an idiot.
CNN’s Matt Egan attempted to explain how now-former Harvard President
Claudine Gay wasn’t accused of stealing anyone’s ideas. She just copied
other people’s work and passed them off as her own without attribution.
Egan, that’s plagiarism.

Spencer wrote that Gay’s time at Harvard is over after multiple
accusations of plagiarism were lobbed against the beleaguered college
president, who should have resigned after her atrocious remarks about
antisemitism last December. Gay refused to condemn calls for genocide
against Jews, saying such actions were judged on a case-by-case basis.
While Gay isn’t resigning over that, her being exposed as an academic
fraud is certainly more damning.
