Practically, I don't think this ends up being true.
It's like asking Fox news to report something bad about republicans, or CNN to report something bad about democrats. Only the "opposition" will expose the dirtier truths. If you're strongly aligned with a "side", and you avoid listening to the "opposition", you're guaranteed to miss out on truth.
Get your news from a wide variety of sources, because they all have very intentional blind spots.
The article has at least a dozen side by side highlighted examples of plagiarism. The title is irrelevant.
More like it is a well established concern, that moderates on both sides of the political spectrum agree that it was overdone in a way that didn't exactly promote meritocracy.
Is this what nu-tolerance looks like?
Robert Dingwall, an emeritus professor of social sciences at two universities in Nottingham, recommended an impartial investigation, stating: "In the current climate, it is difficult to comment on allegations of plagiarism against a prominent minority scholar without seeming to take sides" on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies.
DEI is the singular reason why so many knew the truth about Arday, but refused to do anything about it. It would be heretical to do anything about it.
