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.

Bonkers explanation from CNN reporter Matt Egan on the Harvard plagiarism scandal:

"We should note that Claudine Gay has not been accused of stealing
anyone's ideas in any of her writings. She has been accused of sort of
more like copying other peoples writings without… Show more

Is this how the media is going to explain homicides now: ‘The man wasn’t accused of murder, just shooting someone so many times that the victim
died as a result.’

What a clown show.

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.

Fox News just hired her to replace Hannity.

He's related to AOC, not unexpected!

A Portland man under investigation for child rape botched his attempt to exonerate himself after providing police with his phone — which contained videos of the suspect sexually abusing a dog and a dead or unconscious
deer, authorities allege.

Damon J. Cervantes, 32, is accused of raping a three-year-old child he was supposed to be watching on Sept. 25, according to a probable cause
affidavit filed in Multnomah County Circuit Court.

Two other young children were present, who reported the incident in detail
to another adult that day and later to crisis responders, saying that
Cervantes told them to "keep it a secret," per court documents.

After agreeing to come in for questioning, Cervantes told detectives Sept.
28 that the children were lying and said his cellphone usage would prove
he was busy at the time of the incident, according to court records.

"(Cervantes) showed some screen captures that he had taken to support his contention," according to the probable cause affidavit.

Detectives say Cervantes consented to police downloading a copy of his
cell phone during the interview.

A search of the phone turned up two videos, taken from multiple angles,
showing Cervantes in his bedroom having sex with a pit bull while wearing
a shirt captioned "What day is it? HUMPDAY," per court papers.

Detectives say they found another video that "appeared" to show Cervantes having sex with a "recently deceased or heavily sedated deer" in a
separate incident, although the video does not show his face.

The owner of the dog said Cervantes' behavior around children had often "weirded him out," adding that the dog had refused to eat for almost a
week after being left in Cervantes' care, according to court docs.

Cervantes, who has three prior felony convictions, now faces a slew of sex crime charges, including first-degree rape, first-degree sex abuse, first- degree sodomy, luring a minor, endangering the welfare of a minor and
sexual assault of an animal.

Cervantes was arrested Oct. 11 and has entered not guilty pleas for all 25 charges.

The Portland resident is currently incarcerated at Inverness Jail on bail
of more than $1.5 million, jail records show.
