It’s a pity that the article recently published in the Chronicle of Higher Education (link above) from which I took the title of this post is behind a paywall. Be there as it may and in what concern spineless academic snitches it’s worth remembering a paper published in 2017 where one can read about something that is as repugnant as craven snitches, which is the “war on science through acts of public shaming”
PS – Let´s also not forget those in Academia who have elevated “back-stabbing and bullying to a fine art”
