Simon & Schuster’s Disgrace

Imagine a world in which the late Cambridge University professor Jason Arday had released a widely-hyped book published by Simon & Schuster, one of the Big Five publishing houses, then embarked on a book tour, and nobody said anything.

For such a thing to have happened to a "renowned sociologist," a "highly respected scholar of race," "the youngest Black person ever appointed to a professorship at Cambridge"—well, that would have been racist.

Instead, when Arday’s Great and Unfortunate Things was released earlier this month and some, including the Washington Free Beacon, had the temerity to scrutinize his obviously absurd life story, well, that was racist too. "He couldn’t see a way out because of this avalanche of stories," Arday’s friend Kehinde Andrews told the UK’s Channel 4 News, laying the blame for Arday’s suicide on Friday at the feet of "the media."

Fallen Cambridge Star Jason Arday’s ‘True Life’ Memoir Appears To Poach Life Events From His Favorite Soap Operas, ‘Spartacus,’ and ‘Forrest Gump’

Jason Arday, who resigned from Cambridge last week amid accusations of academic plagiarism and serial fabulism, still became a published Simon & Schuster author this week after the publishing giant released his memoir. The book was meant to inspire readers—and stir profit—through Arday's remarkable life story. But despite targeted 11th-hour editing, the memoir is rife with melodramatic biographical claims that bear remarkable similarity to storylines from Arday's favorite low-brow soap operas, other TV dramas, the Rocky movie franchise, and movies such as Forrest Gump.

EXCLUSIVE: Simon & Schuster Selectively Edited Disgraced Scholar Jason Arday’s Memoir To Soften Now-Toxic Reputation

Jason Arday, who resigned from his prestigious professorship at Cambridge on Wednesday after the university launched an investigation into his academic integrity, is now facing more scrutiny as Simon & Schuster is set to publish his memoir in the United States next week. But the Washington Free Beacon has obtained pre-publication proofs of the book, which show that during the early months of this year the publisher removed what could have been much more fodder for the already rampant accusations of academic misconduct and false claims.
