Usage Note: Educated usage appears to be evenly divided on the pronunciation of harass.
In our 1987 survey 50 percent of the Usage Panel preferred stressing
the first syllable, while 50 percent preferred stressing the second.
Curiously, the Panelists' comments appear to indicate that each side
regards itself as an embattled minority.
