Alison Richards: Ixnay to Harvard

The Varsity, Cambridge's student paper, has another statement from Alison Richard regarding the Harvard job....

In a statement issued by her office in the wake of recent speculation, Richard affirmed “her deep and unequivocal commitment to the University of Cambridge and to completing the full term of her appointment, which ends in 2010”, a moderated version of last month’s statement which claimed that Richard “does not consider herself a candidate for the presidency of Harvard”.

Sounds like a stronger version of her earlier statement, no?

As you say, Richard, "it's not news if someone else reported it":

“In the wake of media speculation, [Richard] reaffirms her deep and unequivocal commitment to the University of Cambridge and to completing the full term of her appointment, which ends in 2010,” the statement said. That marks a change from last month, when Richard’s office released a less definitively worded statement saying that she “does not consider herself a candidate for the presidency of Harvard.”

Well, my good man, you're writing a blog which depends more often than not on things printed in Cambridge's only breakfast daily. At least you could read the thing.
