Veteran news anchor Bill O’Reilly has a message for Harvard University in its battle with President Trump<\/a>: “You’re flat out wrong.”<\/p>\n

Earlier this week, the university rejected the Trump administration’s demands<\/a> to limit activism on campus. That decision prompted the federal government to freeze<\/a> more than $2.2 billion in grants to Harvard.<\/p>\n

The school’s focus on DEI \u2014 diversity, equity and inclusion<\/a> \u2014 has been at the center of the clash, but O’Reilly doesn’t think Harvard is sincerely committed to the idea because there are hardly any conservatives on campus.<\/p>\n

“Your faculty is 90 percent radical left, you don’t hire moderate, traditional conservative professors,” O’Reilly told NewsNation’s “CUOMO” on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

“Conservative, Republican students feel uneasy, threatened,” he continued. “Jewish students feel uneasy.”<\/p>\n

The former Fox News host noted, however, that the campus wasn’t always hostile to conservative viewpoints.<\/p>\n

“When I went there and got my masters in the mid-90s, it wasn’t that way,” O’Reilly told host Chris Cuomo. “It was a liberal culture, but other points of view were accepted.”<\/p>\n

He added: “We all got along swell, the professors didn’t try to indoctrinate anybody.”<\/p>\n

In a letter Monday<\/a>, Harvard President Alan Garber said the university “will not surrender its independence or relinquish its constitutional rights.”<\/p>\n

“No government \u2014 regardless of which party is in power \u2014 should dictate what private universities can teach, whom they can admit and hire, and which areas of study and inquiry they can pursue,” Garber wrote.<\/p>\n

On Wednesday, the Trump administration asked the Internal Revenue Service<\/a> (IRS) to revoke Harvard University\u2019s tax-exempt status.<\/p>\n

O’Reilly thinks a lot of the Trump administration’s threats would go away if the school proved it was committed to ideological diversity.<\/p>\n

“If people were reasonable, this thing could be solved, and I hope it is,” he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
