Melissa Click, an assistant professor, was caught on camera at a November protest trying to remove a student reporter from public property who was attempting to cover campus protests over racial discrimination. "Who wants to help me get this reporter out of here?" she said in a video. "I need some muscle over here." The video went viral and sparked a discussion about free speech on campus. Click later apologized and resigned her courtesy appointment with the university's school of journalism, though she remains employed as an assistant professor of mass media at the university's school of communications.[/quote]
Forcibly removing journalists is a great way to promote your cause.
