Last week the Iranian dictator got the royal free-speech treatment at Columbia.

But, earlier, when the director of the documentary “Indoctrinate-U,” Evan Mahoney, did some filming on the campus, he says “the way he was treated was something out of an East German playbook.” He says Columbia assigned him a “handler” and asked for “final content control” in order that the university be presented in “the best possible light.”

Will Columbia be embarrassed by accusations of adopting totalitarian censorship techniques? Likely not.
