Research fellow Benjamin Ginsberg, author of The New American Anti-Semitism interviewed on KMOX radio in St. Louis. Ginsberg discusses the current anti-semitism on college campuses. He says students are motivated by their feelings instead of facts. The educational system is largely to blame, Ginsberg says. The protests are revealing sad facts about education. High school graduates know little, he says, about American history.

Research Fellow Benjamin Ginsberg, author of The New American Anti-Semitism interviewed on The Drive with Trey Radel on WFSX radio (FL). College campuses are a toxic mix of no conservative or moderate faculty, naive and gullible students who can be convinced of just about anything, and the rise of administrators who are foolish and timid. Administrators are afraid to confront the left, Ginsberg says. This was made evident when the heads of Penn, Harvard and MIT testified in front of congress in December of 2023.

Research Fellow Benjamin Ginsberg, author of The New American Anti-Semitism interviewed on Northern Alliance Radio with Brad Carlson on WWTC radio (MN). Naive children at college campuses are being indoctrinated by professional organizers, says Ginsberg, who provides historic examples of indoctrinating children. Students are not taught history or civics. Instead, Ginsberg says, they are taught the United States is a ruthless, repressive and imperialistic power.

What’s behind the ugly antisemitism on campuses and elsewhere that surged up after the Hamas attack on Israel in October 2023?

He talks with Independent’s Graham Walker and Phil Magness about the book in this episode of Independent Conversations.

Many headline scientific findings in recent years have turned out to be false. They can’t be reproduced—and if you can’t reproduce a result, it isn’t science. The headlines are just the tip of the iceberg. A huge amount of ordinary scientific findings published in peer-reviewed journals doesn't replicate. Something has gone terribly wrong in contemporary scientific procedures.

Science’s failure is called the "Irreproducibility Crisis." It is the result of improper use of statistics, arbitrary research techniques, lack of accountability, political groupthink, and a scientific culture biased toward producing positive results. By some estimates, half of recent scientific research could be irreproducible.

In his presentation, Barry Smith discusses the irreproducibility crisis in ontological terms of misuse of data analysis or p-hacking (selective reporting of data, data fishing, data dredging) and how to restore the scientific enterprise. Dr. Smith is the SUNY Distinguished Professor of Philosophy and Julian Park Chair, Philosophy Department at the University at Buffalo.
