One example I recently came across is a column titled “When Young Jews Major in Antisemitism,” published in 2005 in the Los Angeles Times. That explains the lecture topic I was asked to speak about in Virginia to a largely secular and liberal Jewish audience. The Los Angeles Times was liberal for at least 60 years – the last Republican presidential candidate the paper endorsed was Dwight Eisenhower in 1956 – but it is now leftist. Second, the deterioration of Harvard is also reflected in my column of 19 years ago. I quoted Harvard’s then-president, Lawrence Summers, who decried the Israel-hating, leading-to-antisemitism views of “progressive intellectual communities.” From Larry Summers to Claudine Gay, Harvard’s moral decline perfectly mirrors that of Sports Illustrated and the Los Angeles Times.
