Steve Bannon cancels Harvard appearance

(BOSTON GLOBE) — Steve Bannon, president-elect Donald Trump’s controversial choice for chief White House strategist, will not attend a conference at Harvard Kennedy School’s Institute of Politics this week, school officials said Tuesday.

A school spokesman did not say why Bannon had cancelled.

Bannon, who was executive chairman of Breitbart News, a website that has been called a platform for the alt-right, a movement tied to racist and anti-Semitic views, was listed as a “confirmed participant” at the “Campaign for President: The Managers Look at 2016” event on Wednesday and Thursday.
