Look at what the left has done to America.This evokes the methods of the Third Reich.
NYU Journalism School Hires Ex-New Yorker Fact Checker Who Falsely Said ICE Agent Had Nazi Tattoo
Talia Lavin’s undergraduate course “Reporting on the Far Right” will kick off in the fall semester of 2019
New York University has hired Talia Lavin as an adjunct journalism professor less than a year after the former New Yorker fact checker resigned after falsely accusing an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent of having a Nazi tattoo.
Lavin’s undergraduate course “Reporting on the Far Right” will kick off in the fall semester of 2019 at NYU’s Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute. In its official faculty bio, the university billed Lavin as an expert in “far-right extremism and social justice.”
‘What are we doing?’ Look who NYU just hired to teach a course about ‘Reporting on the Far Right’
Remember Talia Lavin? She’s the former New Yorker fact checker who got famous for smearing a Marine Corps veteran and ICE analyst as a Nazi. Shortly thereafter, she wound up joining Media Matters “as a researcher on far-right extremism and the alt-right.”Well, she’s since moved on to bigger and better things. Like … teaching a “Reporting on the Far Right” course at NYU:

Why wouldn’t they mention something like that?
Just weeks after leaving the New Yorker, Lavin was hired by Media Matters to work as a researcher on "far-right extremism" — and though she continues to represent herself as employed there on LinkedIn, I'm told she left the organization months ago.https://t.co/wwLOdWIaDm pic.twitter.com/fKLl8DEV63

From an NYU journalism student:
"I don't know why someone who had to quit their journalism job for falsely implying someone is a Nazi should be teaching at NYU. I know there are plenty of reporters out there in need of work who haven't made a mistake like that."

We don’t know why someone like Talia Lavin should be teaching at NYU, either. Yet here we are.

Fake, but accurate.
Basically NYU is hiring all of the worst journalists in the media to teach others about journalism. https://t.co/9jhxBQFxbQ

CNN gets a Cronkite award for the Parkland Town Hall and Talian Lavin and Lauren Duca are teaching journalism at NYU. Is there any wonder why the media is a dumpster fire?

Obama really put this crap on the map. He favored Islam and Maoism.
Remember this ? Obama littered the WH Christmas tree with PPhood, Mao and other lefty themed Christmas balls. The drag queen Hedda Lettuce, and another showed a picture of Mount Rushmore — with Obama’s head pasted to the side of Washington, Lincoln, Jefferson and Roosevelt’s. YOUTH and dysfunctional adult liberals are his red guards to enforce this garbage.

There is no ‘alt left, it’s just the Left. And there is no ‘alt right’ either, those who call themselves that are just the same old neonazis and white nationalists.

As a minimum they should offer another course on “Fake News from the Left”.

NYU, another bastion of hate, fear and corruption. They have a billion dollar endowment for screwing over their students by charging obscene tuition to learn NOTHING.

Talia Lavin reminds me of the political officers who served Stalin’s NKVD and Hitler’s Gestapo in the 30’s and 40’s…She’s nothing but a low level apparatchik stooge for the progressive left, aka fascist-communism.

Two things stand out in this little fiasco:
1. No job qualifications or work experience for her is cited except for having her ass fired at the NYT, and
2. Students incur massive educational debt to take a useless course like this as part of their degree plan?

Journalism Today: Trump encouraged it,provoked it,planned it,did it! Having learned and recited this a 100 times, I get an A+ and a BS degree in journalism and a job at WAPO or the NYT, right?

Yet ANOTHER reason the left is emboldened to spew their bile. There is no downside. Another leftist organization….in this case NYU….is ALWAYS there to pick up the pieces and make them whole.

It is past time for taxpayers to demand that universities lose their funding until all the left wing stupid social justice courses are removed. President Trump’s move to remove federal funding from universities that violate the First Amendment rights of conservative students was a good start. The best result would be for education to return to being the responsibility of individual states while there still exists some citizens with common sense.

It’s actually comical in a very sad way to watch Jon Scott and Sandra Smith interview and apparently take seriously and at his word the likes of a Hakeem Jeffries, who, like obolo, uses our language in a perverted sense to sucker punch us with weaponized explications such as “national security,” “the American people,” and “our.”

I don’t know if she faced a libel suit in court, against the person or against the New Yorker magazine?
I would expect the government if not the ICE agent to sue for libel, since I can’t think of a much more libelous statement than to state someone has a NAZI tattoo.
I guess NYU isn’t worried about hiring her, although as adjunct professor, she’s probably not on a tenure track.
I don’t know anything about NYU. Is it a public university?
If a public university, then there should be information about her hiring, such as who thought she should be on the faculty. That information might be available through a sunshine law.

Sadly, NYU is all but a lost cause. Their students voted for BDS several times, I think.
