Settlement talks = kick rocks.

The New York Times got fed a false story by Trump insiders that Harvard was in settlement talks with them, which everyone at Harvard denied. They're continuing to pretend that this story is real and that they didn't get completely snowed, even in the face of massive evidence to the contrary (Harvard's aggressive litigation and complete refusal to comply).

So they frame this story - a shocking rebuke of the basic premise of all Trump's university shakedowns, enabled explicitly by Harvard's resistance to those shakedowns - as yet more evidence that Harvard is "in settlement talks" with the WH.

The New York Times is a clown paper.
