Misguided Academic

An academic or a scholar that still maintains their ability to think critically and form informed opinions on topics within their field without the indulgence of “the company line “ or narrative that is in the mainstream. Note: these opinions are still fact based.

I heard that my professor was a misguided academic because she has first hand expertise unlike Bob on Twitter.
