So, a professor Susan Crockford claimed that “the result of her research showing that polar bear populations are stable and even thriving, not plummeting as a result of shrinking Arctic sea ice, defying claims of the climate change movement.”

Now the controversy surrounds the fact that she was kind of terminated and her insinuation is that is because her research did not push the climate catastrophe narrative.

Of course this case has more to do with freedom of expression versus pushing a narrative especially in academia. But, the polar bear part stuck out because she has also worked with PBS on some documentaries (it was about dogs).

If that University thinks that this move of theirs won't backfire, then they're mistaken. As it is, the news picked it up, and you know how things can spread in the media. Reply
