Over the weekend, the New York Times published a Letter to the Editor expressing support for students who derailed Charles Murray’s Middlebury lecture earlier this month, brazenly referring to Murray as “an advocate of eugenics-oriented bigotry.”

The letter, written by Robert Weisbuch, professor emeritus of English at the University of Michigan, baselessly recycles widely-debunked smears against Murray’s scholarship to depict him as an unequivocal racist.
