Joseph Menn: Ousted propaganda scholar Joan Donovan accuses #Harvard of bowing to Meta: In a #whistleblower complaint, she breaks her silence over events that unsettled other misinformation researchers
"A prominent disinformation scholar has accused Harvard of dismissing her to curry favor with #Facebook and its current and former executives in violation of her right to free speech.
Joan Donovan claimed in a filing with the Education Department and the MA attorney general that her superiors soured on her as Harvard was getting a record $500 million pledge from #Meta founder Zuckerberg’s charitable arm.
As research director of Harvard Kennedy School projects delving into mis- and #disinformation on social media platforms, Donovan had raised millions in grants, testified before Congress and been a frequent commentator on television, often faulting internet companies for profiting from the spread of divisive falsehoods."

@aramsinn @commodon @communicationscholars @ICAHDQ @HigherEdLabor @academicchatter The fact that so many at #Harvard are so bone ignorant of how social platforms led the way to the new sectarianism from 2015-2020 is chilling. How small groups entirely juiced the algorithms so opaque conspiracy, scams and info-ops utterly dominated turning them into cesspools, makes me think #JoanDonovan is better to leave. #disinformation #Facebook #twitter #YouTube

You don't have to be a Harvard professor to do the math on this one... #JoanDonovan's pathbreaking work on #disinformation and #SocialMedia is a liability for a university that gets half a billion dollars from the owner of the greatest disinformation machine ever built. #commodon @commodon @communicationscholars @ICAHDQ @HigherEdLabor #academic @academicchatter
