I thought protestors wanted to be on the news.

I thought protestors wanted to be on the news.

What better way than to pretend they don't want it?

Boy the irony here is delicious. "You can't come into our protest about equality!"

If they want privacy, maybe move off the lawn and into a room somewhere.

Having worked in education, I'd think the professor might need to reread the school's policies. The comment about getting some muscle and her movement as she calls for that seems that it might imply advocating physical force toward a student (reporter) who doesn't seem to have been causing any harm to other students or school property, or, anything.

Out on the quad. Where there's probably no expectation of privacy. And I wonder if they had permission to camp out there.

Nope! Everyone has a hair trigger these days and will tolerate nothing. People are all pissy about f'ing coffee cups.

Yep.
Mass Media Assistant Professor Melissa Click stepped in the doo doo and is backpedaling as fast as she can.
Can she save her job? I doubt it.

If you've not seen this movie on college/university campuses firsthand, this offers some useful background:

I knew the concept of "free speech" was doomed when our university erected a "speaking corner" well away from where the speakers wanted to speak.
