Anyone who tries to unironically complain about “DEI” in the headline does not deserve a read. It is just a dog whistle at this point.

Robert Dingwall, an emeritus professor of social sciences at two universities in Nottingham, recommended an impartial investigation, stating: "In the current climate, it is difficult to comment on allegations of plagiarism against a prominent minority scholar without seeming to take sides" on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies.
DEI is the singular reason why so many knew the truth about Arday, but refused to do anything about it. It would be heretical to do anything about it.

Practically, I don't think this ends up being true.
It's like asking Fox news to report something bad about republicans, or CNN to report something bad about democrats. Only the "opposition" will expose the dirtier truths. If you're strongly aligned with a "side", and you avoid listening to the "opposition", you're guaranteed to miss out on truth.
Get your news from a wide variety of sources, because they all have very intentional blind spots.

The article has at least a dozen side by side highlighted examples of plagiarism. The title is irrelevant.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”
