Two (well, really one) concrete example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessica_F._Cantlon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jessica_F._Cantlon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celeste_Kidd https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Celeste_Kidd The allegations these women made against Jaeger were investigated four separate times, including investigations carried out by 3rd party investigators, and each time were determined to be unfounded. Not only that, the investigations revealed that Kidd and Cantlon had told explicit lies to investigators (e.g. claiming he sexually assaulted other women, but those women explained to investigators that no such assaults occurred, and they never gave any indication to Kidd or Cantlon that that were ever assaulted by Jaeger).
Despite this, the wikipedia articles remained entirely credulous of these accusations until only a few months ago. A couple editors suppressed any inclusion of exonerating information.
- ChadNauseam 2y agoIt's kind of interesting that the page for Cantlon mentions that she is Time person of the year for being one of the Silence Breakers, but as far as I can tell, the actual article has 0 information about the circumstances that lead to her being given that award until almost the bottom of the article, under the heading "Academic service".
