Bias Insights

  • The left emphasizes the portrayal of Muslim and Palestinian students at Harvard as victims of harassment and discrimination. It critiques Harvard’s failure to protect them and uses loaded language to evoke strong negative emotions, such as “rampant harassment” and “terrorists.”
  • The center highlights the experiences of the Muslim and Palestinian students, focusing on allegations of harassment and intimidation. It suggests that Harvard has not adequately responded to these incidents and portrays the complaint as necessary for addressing religious discrimination and harassment.
  • Both sides exhibit a bias in favor of the students and the Muslim Legal Fund of America, presenting their perspective and grievances without offering alternative points of view.
