The Massachusetts Institute of Technology and its elite Media Lab are embroiled in controversy in the wake of a new report about Jeffrey Epstein.
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology accepted millions in donations from Jeffrey Epstein's foundations and from donors directly connected to Epstein, including Bill Gates and Leon Black. MIT Media Lab, an elite group within MIT, was largely responsible for courting Epstein and arranging the donations, according to a New Yorker report. A series of emails unearthed in the report depicts a culture of concealing donations made by Epstein to MIT.
