Critics Question Harvard Paper

(New York Sun) Meghan Clyne - Marvin Kalb, founding director of the Kennedy School's Shorenstein Center on the Press, Politics, and Public Policy, said, "It clearly does not meet the academic standards of a Kennedy School research paper....It is a rather sensational example of 'realist' journalism....Walt would be better advised to stick to scholarship and leave journalism to journalists, who generally check their 'facts' before publishing them." President Clinton's special Middle East envoy, Dennis Ross, said the authors displayed "a woeful lack of knowledge on the subject....It is masquerading as scholarship." (New York Sun) "The content [of the paper] is not significant," said the executive vice chairman of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, Malcolm Hoenlein. "Those seeking to damage the U.S.-Israel relationship have been saying this for a while. The fact that it carries the imprimatur of the Harvard Kennedy School is. Those that don't know better would assume it has validity, when it doesn't."
