The Safe Space That Became a Viral Nightmare

An argument at Arizona State’s multicultural center spiraled into a disaster for everyone involved. Who was to blame?

... the same semester that Bebout was targeted, at least two other incidents at universities followed a similar trajectory: Campus Reform and similar conservative online sites — and there are a number of them — reported on a supposed transgression, Fox News amplified the story and the National Youth Front began targeting individual professors or college administrators, claiming that white people were facing discrimination. More recently, a survey by the American Association of University Professors found a similar trend: namely that Campus Reform articles often result in harassment and attacks. Of the faculty members surveyed, 40 percent of them had received “threats of harm, including physical violence or death” after being named in an article in Campus Reform, which is listed as a public charity in tax documents by the Leadership Institute, a conservative organization that owns the site. The study found that Black faculty members were disproportionally named in the articles themselves; L.G.B.T.Q. faculty were more likely to be harassed after publication; and prominent research institutions tended to be the primary focus of the website’s ire.
