Haidt is a psychologist whose research and advocacy has in recent years moved towards political bias in universities, in particular he talks a lot about student and faculty driven morality-based censorship.
He started the "Heterodox Academy" which argues for and promotes ideological diversity (i.e. both left and right) in universities.

Some guy derailed the conversation for no reason. Jonathan Haidt is far from right wing propaganda (though he is heavily focused on morality and religion like many D's).
Below is a quick dirty quote from Wikipedia.
In chapter 8 of The Righteous Mind, Haidt describes how he began to study political psychology in order to help the Democratic Party win more elections. But in chapter 12 of The Righteous Mind Haidt argues that each of the major political groups – conservatives, progressives, and libertarians—have valuable insights and that truth and good policy emerge from the contest of ideas. Since 2012 Haidt has referred to himself as a political centrist
