Joan Donovan, a disinformation scholar, accuses Harvard University of infringing on her free speech by dismissing her, potentially to appease Facebook. Donovan's termination, allegedly linked to Harvard's $500 million pledge from Meta founder Mark Zuckerberg, is seen as compromising academic freedom and prioritizing the interests of the tech giant. Harvard denies Donovan's claims, asserting that she was a staff employee and offering her a part-time role, which she declined.
