In general, when accusations and =negations are made, they should, if credible, be investigated. 
=hose who know nothing about them (my situation in the present case) =ave nothing to say, and cannot speculate

Independently, Valeria and I have known =awrence very well for years, and what you describe is

Dear Professor Chomsky, 
EFTA_R1_01704815 
EFTA02549542
I'm on the science desk at BuzzFeed News, where we have =eported on several big 
investigations about =/span>sexual harassment in the sciences. 
For the last several months, I, along with two other =eporters on my desk, have been 
investigating at least four accounts of =exual misconduct involving Lawrence Krauss stretching back a decade. =ur story 
is corroborated by emails, university documents, official =omplaints, testimony from victims and witnesses, and 
interviews with =ore than two dozen of Krauss's current and former academic =olleagues, students, and peers in the 
skeptics =ovement. 
We are now nearing our publication date. I am =eaching out to you now in the hopes that you 
may consider commenting on =hat allegations like this mean for your field, particularly since you =ave done events with 
Krauss and occupy a similar place in the public =phere. 
Are you interested in chatting? 
We're planning to publish our story on Tuesday =orning, Eastern US Time. If you'd like to talk, 
please let us =now as soon as possible. 
Sincerely, 
Ginny Hughes
