Welcome back to Biography Flash. Here's what's happening with Noam Chomsky this week.
The 96-year-old linguistic giant remains largely out of public view following a stroke he suffered in 2024, from which he's been recovering in Brazil according to reports from earlier this year. However, his intellectual presence continues to reverberate through the media landscape and academic institutions.
Just this week, Imperial College London is hosting a December 4th event titled "The Responsibility of Humanities in the 21st Century: A Rejoinder to Noam Chomsky," suggesting his ideas remain subject to active scholarly debate. Additionally, the University of Arizona, where Chomsky holds the position of laureate professor, continues to organize student engagement opportunities, with office hours recently made available for undergraduates to pose questions directly to the professor.
The most significant recent development involves explosive revelations about Chomsky's previously undisclosed relationship with Jeffrey Epstein. Emails released by Republican members of the US House Oversight Committee in mid-November exposed that Chomsky maintained regular contact with Epstein even after the financier's conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor. In correspondence, Chomsky described their relationship as a "most valuable experience," citing Epstein's knowledge of global finance and his connections to world leaders. The emails reveal Chomsky received approximately 270,000 dollars from an account linked to Epstein, though Chomsky stressed not a penny came directly from Epstein himself. The correspondence shows Epstein even offered Chomsky use of his residences in New York and New Mexico. Notably, Chomsky's wife Valeria sent birthday wishes to Epstein in 2017, writing that she and Noam hoped to see him soon.
On the intellectual front, Chomsky's work on media criticism and propaganda continues generating discussion. His frameworks for understanding how consent is manufactured through institutional structures remain surprisingly relevant to current debates about social media, troll farms, and information ecosystems, with contemporary analysts drawing connections between his decades-old observations and present-day information warfare.
Meanwhile, Chomsky's voice continues appearing in podcasts and media archives, with recent clips from his conversations about American empire and geopolitical tensions circulating online, keeping his analysis of contemporary global affairs in circulation among audiences.
