Times Higher Education under fire over James Orr allegations
Original: “Times Higher Education, Sponsored by Orbán’s Hungary, Failed to Report James Orr Allegations” by Samantha Asumadu in Th
Byline Times columnist Samantha Asumadu reports that Times Higher Education signed a sponsorship partnership with Viktor Orbán's Hungarian government and has since published no coverage of allegations concerning academic James Orr. Critics say the funding relationship raises questions about the outlet's editorial independence and its failure to report on a story involving a UK academic. The article is circulating among UK politics readers.
Why now: Accusations that a respected education outlet's Orbán government sponsorship coincided with silence on James Orr allegations have sparked debate about editorial independence.
