Chomsky's meetings with Epstein took place long after the disgraced financier had registered as a sex offender, the Journal reported.
The Wall Street Journal, in an exclusive published Sunday, said it had obtained Epstein's private calendar, which outlined numerous meetings with high-profile people, including Chomsky, the famed academic and political activist. When the Journal reached out to Chomsky for comment, the linguist had some choice words.
"First response is that it is none of your business. Or anyone's. Second is that I knew him and we met occasionally," Chomsky, 94, told the Journal in an email.

The most trustworthy thing you can ever do when confronted with a documented connection to a convicted sex trafficker, is to first get mad that you're even getting asked about this, secondly insist that even if you did have a connection, it doesnt matter at all.
This has always worked and there is no reason to think people will get more suspicious of you for refusing to divulge any details.
Or just say how you didn't know about it and how terrible it must be for the victims and ask for forgiveness for your lack of judgement etc.
It's not hard!
I did it for him, by asking GPT to roleplay as a famous academic activist, while I play the journalist:
Journalist: Why were you in a flight to Jeffrey Epstein's private island?
Famous Academic: I'm sorry, but I'm afraid you must have mistaken me for someone else. I have never been to Jeffrey Epstein's private island, nor have I had any involvement with him or his activities. As a public figure, I understand that my name and reputation may sometimes be linked to false or misleading information, but I can assure you that any allegations or insinuations of my involvement with Mr. Epstein are completely unfounded and untrue.
Journalist: We obtained records from Epstein's private journal mentioning you by name. What do you say to that?
Famous Academic: I understand that as a journalist, you have an obligation to follow leads and pursue information that is in the public interest. However, I must reiterate that any mention of my name in connection to Jeffrey Epstein is completely false and baseless. I have no knowledge of or involvement in Mr. Epstein's activities, and any claims to the contrary are simply untrue. It's unfortunate that my name has been dragged into this scandal, but I stand by the truth and will continue to focus on my work as an academic and activist in service of creating a more just and equitable world.
In another scheduled meeting with Chomsky, Epstein planned to fly the scholar in to dine with director Woody Allen and his wife, Soon-Yi Previn.
Oh for fuck's sake. Try to make it less obvious. It's like a child molester convention in that room.
That's the "brilliant artist" he did this for? Jesus, man.
Allen’s child abuse allegations have been corrected and their continued propagation stems from anti semitism
Oh come off it. He fucked his wife's child. Mia Farrow divorced him because of it. He lives on Manhattan's Upper East Side. He vocally defended fellow child molester Roman Polanski. He accused Harvey Weinstein's victims of conducting a witch hunt. He was friends with Jeffrey Epstein. If you're going to say just because all these people are Jewish then that's an anti-Semitic conspiracy theory, I don't know what to tell you. Woody Allen is a world-class creep who likes to hang around with other world-class creeps.
For someone who doesn't molest children, he sure hangs out with a lot of child molesters. Should I add Britain's Prince Andrew to the list of Woody Allen's buddies?
What would you say about someone who you don't know molests children or not, but has child molesters as friends? Would you let him alone with your kids unsupervised? Why or why not?
Some user on here once linked me a hour long YT video of why he's supposedly innocent and like no, I am not watching that.
Have you seen any of his movies? It isn't admissible in court but it is obvious he is some kind of sex criminal
:no:
I believe Dylan, I see no indication she's lying about anything
i saw Hasan's thumbnail last night and though "another Parenti Dub" :hahaha:
"This wealthy, powerful, and well connected convicted sex criminal surrounded by young models seems on the level" :chomsky-yes-honey:
First response is that it is none of your business. Or anyone's. Second is that my dick needs to be flattened every day at 4pm"

We had a good thing, you stupid revisionist! We had college lectures. We had credibility. We had everything we needed, and it all ran like clockwork. You could've shut your mouth, wrote your papers and made as many books as you ever needed. It was perfect. But, no, you just HAD to blow it up. You, and your pride, and your ego! You just HAD to be the man. If you'd done your job, known your place, we'd all be fine right now.
