for me, this was personalYou don’t know me well enough yet to be familiar with my posting cadence, but I usually don’t send so many emails… I usually send 1-2 deeper/formal dives per week, but in the past two 2 weeks, I have been sending tons of short Claudine Gay updates.The reason I am covering this story so extensively is simple: it’s the biggest scandal of the entire year, and I was the one to break it, on December 11th.My heartfelt gratitude goes out to the anonymous source who sent me the crucial tip regarding plagiarism. Many of my stories are the result of anonymous tips.This highlights the pivotal role that whistleblowers play in uncovering truths and promoting transparency; leaking documents isn’t just about exposing individual cases of misconduct; it’s a powerful tool for societal change. These documents often shed light on systemic issues, sparking public discourse and leading to reforms and substantive change — such as when a whistleblower leaked me the internal Ford Foundation listserv…… which led to the Ford Foundation Fellowship Program being permanently shuttered!!So, if you have any documents that could contribute to the public good — on any subject at all — I strongly encourage you to come forward. Throughout my career, I’ve collaborated with dozens of brave anonymous sources, and nobody’s anonymity has ever been compromised. I will keep your identity safe.Email me, let’s change the world:chrisbrunet@protonmail.com
