Since its inception in 1969, Accuracy in Media has exposed and held countless
radicals accountable.



The AIM team spent 2024 working to maintain that legacy. Here is a look back
on your impact this year...




Holding Radicals Accountable


At the start of 2024, AIM sent our infamous mobile billboards to campuses
across the country as students returned from winter break.
<[link removed]>
From the University of California, Berkeley to the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill, AIM exposed dozens of individuals responsible for
spreading antisemitism on their campuses.



Throughout the year, AIM took a bold stand by exposing radical activists
behind the disorderly and violent encampments on several campuses, urging
university administrations to take decisive action.AIM President, Adam
Guillette, shared his firsthand experiences from these campus encounters during
an appearance onThe Ingraham Angle.
<[link removed]>



Columbia University in New York became a focal point of AIM’s activism.
Radical activists at Columbia not only harassed Jewish students by stalking
them and obstructing their ability to attend classes, but they also set up a
massive encampment that escalated into the occupation of Hamilton Hall,where a
janitor was held hostage.
<[link removed]>



AIM activists spearheaded a powerful campaign, sending over 45,000 emails and
making more than 1,000 calls to Columbia’s Board of Trustees, demanding the
resignation of President Minouche Shafik and accountability for the campus
crisis.



Thanks in part to AIM’s relentless efforts, Shafik ultimately resigned in
disgrace in August.
<[link removed]>
Her departure joins a growing list of university presidents who stepped down
following AIM’s activism, including Harvard University’sClaudine Gay
<[link removed]>
, the University of Pennsylvania’sLiz Magill
<[link removed]>
, and the University of Southern California’sCarol Folt
<[link removed]>
.



AIM’s fight for accountability didn’t stop with Shafik’s resignation. Our
team remained steadfast in exposing and confronting antisemites who refused to
take responsibility for their actions. Among them was Isabella Giusti, arrested
during Columbia’s encampment,whom AIM confronted at her multi-million-dollar
family home in Savannah, Georgia
<[link removed]>.



AIM also targeted the prestigious law firm Debevoise & Plimpton five separate
times in November <[link removed]> and
December <[link removed]> to hold them
accountable for hiring two of Columbia’s leading antisemites—despite the firm’s
public commitment to “zero tolerance” for antisemitism in hiring. AIM’s
activists continue to apply pressure, bombarding the firm’s leadership with
emails and phone calls to demand accountability and answers for their hypocrisy.



Connected to our work at Columbia is our recent activism campaign at Virginia
Military Institute <[link removed]>. VMI
awarded a prestigious fellowship and teaching role to Philip Crane, a Columbia
University graduate and radical anti-American activist. Crane, as a student
leader of an organization at Columbia, signed a letter blaming the October 7
attacks on Israel and America, yet graduated without facing any consequences.
His extremist views make him unfit to teach the future military leaders of our
nation.



Our activism campaign began on VMI’s most prominent day of the year—Founders
Day—where thousands of students, staff, alumni, and donors were made aware of
who Crane is. In response, VMI released a statementdefending Crane and denying
our findings. Undeterred, our team is collaborating with passionate VMI alumni
to intensify the pressure on the administration to hold Crane accountable. So
far, our work has gained significant coverage at both local and national
levels, with our activists sending over 33,000 emails demanding action.The
fight continues. <[link removed]>



In May, our undercover investigators infiltrated one of the nation’s most
violent anti-Israel encampments at theUniversity of California, Los Angeles
<[link removed]>. The encampment, fortified
with strategically placed wooden barricades, was more than a student-led
protest—it was a hotspot for dangerous outside agitators. Among those exposed
by AIM’s hidden cameras was a member of the Revolutionary Communist Party of
America (RevCom). This agitator openly admitted to aiding the protests and
revealed that the encampment was part of a larger mission: the destruction of
America and the capitalist system.



AIM’s investigation revealed the deeper, radical agenda underpinning this
unrest, exposing the forces actively working to destabilize our nation. It
confirmed what we’ve long understood: antisemitism on campus is deeply
intertwined with the radical Left’s Marxist vision of dismantling America and
capitalism. This investigation provided further evidence of the disturbing
realities unfolding at colleges across the country.Our investigation was
featured in a Fox News “First on Fox” special, dominating headlines all day
upon its release
<[link removed]>
.



At the University of California, Irvine,
<[link removed]> numerous students were
arrested for acts of violence during protests, yet the administration failed to
hold any of them accountable. So AIM acted immediately, arriving on campus to
demand answers and accountability. While there, a student expressed gratitude
for AIM's presence, sharing how terrifying it was to witness peers openly
calling for an “Intifada”—a term in this context referring to wiping Jews off
the map—during the protests. He thanked us for standing up to such extremism at
UC Irvine and for our broader work on campuses nationwide.




In addition to our work on college campuses, AIM targeted radical and
antisemitic educators in K-12 schools nationwide.



One of the most egregious examples was Ian Golash, a Seattle public school
teacher known for promoting radical views... such as claiming that identifying
as straight is offensive, and that men can get pregnant. But Golash drew our
attention when he openly defended Hamas. So AIM deployed a mobile billboard to
his school, drawing extensive local media coverage and sparking community
outrage.As a result, Golash was removed from the classroom and placed on leave
for the remainder of the year.
<[link removed]>

Determined to ensure Golash would not return to the classroom, AIM revisited
the school and district offices.
<[link removed]> However, someone leaked
AIM’s schedule to a group of far-left Antifa activists. These masked thugs
trailed our president and mobile billboard throughout the day, at one point
threatening our cameraman with what appeared to be pepper spray. Despite these
challenges, AIM’s efforts succeeded: our team confirmed that Golash is no
longer teaching this academic year.




Investigative Journalism


This year, our team has conducted on-the-ground investigations across the
country, covering California, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Michigan, Nevada, New
York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, and
Wisconsin.



One of our most impactful releases took place in Texas, where our team
investigated more than 20 universities to assess their compliance with the
state’s ban on DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) programs in higher
education.



Our work uncovered several campuses defying the law and continuing DEI
initiatives <[link removed]>, including the
University of Texas at Tyler. Following local media coverage of our findings, a
university administrator was placed on leave and ultimately removed from the
institution.




2024: A Landmark Year for AIM


This year, AIM proudly welcomed legendary school choice advocate Corey
DeAngelis to our team as a Senior Adviser
<[link removed]>. Corey’s deep
expertise in education policy will be a tremendous asset as we gear up for
2025, with major school choice legislation slated for discussion in states like
Texas and Tennessee. In preparation, AIM has already gathered impactful content
from these states, ready to launch as legislative sessions kick off in January.



Another exciting moment was AIM President Adam Guillette’s appearance on Dan
Bongino’s election night coverage—the most-streamed online election coverage in
the nation <[link removed]>. This
platform allowed AIM’s message to reach an even broader audience during a
critical moment in the political landscape.



This year marked one of the busiest and most successful in AIM’s 55-year
history. Our organization achieved unprecedented growth, with a budget reaching
$3 million—our highest in over a decade. Additionally, an estimated 4.6 million
people engaged with stories highlighting our work, and our investigations and
activism have garnered more than $37 million in earned media.



Thank you for your unwavering support in making 2024 one of our most impactful
years yet. As we look to 2025, we’re excited for the opportunities ahead to
shape meaningful legislation. Together, we’ll continue to drive change and make
a difference.



Happy New Year,



The Accuracy in Media Team
