I was pretty disgusted by that. It seems like the guy's crimes were some poor citation (he did cite the academic he alledgedly plagiarised so obviously it's not plagiarism lol) and maybe exaggerating some of his life?
Seeing the media go from uncritically regurgitating a racist's allegation, to reporting about the allegation controversy, to uncritically reporting what people claim to have or have not remembered about his life from 30 years ago, to digging through his entire life. For, I'll reiterate, maybe citing something badly and doing some sloppy scholarship.
You know, the thing that gets someone a disciplinary chat and maybe a bump down if anything.
