RT @shellenberger: @BBCNews @AAUP This is the person in charge of BBC's fact-checking. Instead of fact-checking BBC for its misinformatio…

@BBCNews .@AAUP explicitly argues for lowering standards: "It is time to stop looking at faculty members of color as deficient or in need of molding and requiring them to bear the burden of changing. We must instead think about how to change the shape of promotion and tenure criteria."

@BBCNews The DEI mania was on both sides of the Atlantic. Right around the time of Arday's hire, the American Association of University Professors argued that universiteis should "universities to address areas that exclude or disadvantage faculty members of color." https://t.co/7BcYWQB2IT

@BBCNews BBC has long promoted the same DEI agenda that Cambridge promoted. Watch as the @BBCNews now acts like Cambridge alone deserves blame for the Arday Scandal. https://t.co/9FYqUTBazl

@BBCNews The @BBCNews literally let Jason Arday serve as "guest editor" of its Today program, a major honor. Past guest academic editors included Stephen Hawking, Tim Berners-Lee, James Dyson, and Martin Rees. https://t.co/0NL96Lod9B

@BBCNews Cambridge "was under pressure from faculty and students to diversify." Yes — and from the media. Watch legacy news journalists now act like they hadn't spent decades demanding precisely the policies and practices that led to Arday's rise and fall. https://t.co/Pywu9qE4qT

@BBCNews The news media that spent years demanding DEI and lower academic standards for minorities are now going to try to pin all the blame on Cambridge. https://t.co/A8j2RPU09J

@BBCNews This appalling documentary remains uncorrected, and BBC Verify is shamefully silent about its own misinformation: https://t.co/marIimBXdO [Quoted] Diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder at the age of 3, Jason Arday learnt to read & write at 18. On Monday he’ll start work as @Cambridge_Uni’s youngest black Professor. It was a real privilege to help tell his story @BBCNews https://t.co/8sCJnL26fb

.@BBCNews has turned off replies for its responsibility-denying "analysis" https://t.co/nPJOiGs9ls [Quoted] Analysis: Jason Arday's death will send shockwaves through a divided academia https://t.co/haRJMs7IAg

Here is the tragic end to this story: https://t.co/R8743uEdZg [Quoted] The @BBCNews says Jason Arday's death will send shockwaves through universities. It should send shockwaves through the media and the BBC. They promoted him, spread his misinformation, and are to blame for his rise and fall. They must be held accountable. https://t.co/WEqnovEQdH
