Here's the exact quote. Let's parse it: Menon f
Post# of 72440
Menon falsely stated for the article:
[how does Rosen know that? He doesn't. He INFERS that Menon stated it. Reporters are known to be inaccurate and Rosen presents NO testimony from the reporter alleging that Menon said any such thing]
“Tom made Menon a scientist at his laboratory in
Harvard. But as per Harvard’s law,
[Really? Harvard has laws? I had no idea they were an independent state.]
one should have doctorate to work there.
[ How ungrammatical can you get? Sounds like Homer Simpson (must... have...doctorate). Maybe someone must have A doctorate, according to them. I don't accept this as fact. Plenty of labs have people working in them who do not have doctorates. In fact I know specifically of labs at Harvard that have had non-doctoral people working there.]
As Menon didn’t
have a PhD, it was a major challenge before him. But Tom was not ready to give up. He admitted
Menon as a PhD student under his guidance. And it’s the time for Menon to act. He took his first
PhD in pharmacology in 34 months.”
[Where does it say that the Ph.D. was from Harvard? NOWHERE.]
So, to summarize, Rosen bases claim (see? me can write like Rosen) that Menon misrepresented himself to the reporter as having a Harvard Ph.D. on nothing. Menon is not the verified source of any quote in the article, and the article doesn't even say that the Ph.D. was from Harvard, merely that Menon had a Ph.D. from SOMEWHERE.
