NC Prof Tells Students To Block Parents From Watching Fox News
Independent Sentinel ^ | October 31, 2018 | S. Noble

Posted on 10/31/2018 6:50:08 PM PDT by E. Pluribus Unum

A North Carolina Professor wants her students to block Fox News from their parents. Think about that, parents are paying for their kids to go to a school that’s indoctrinating them and telling them to do the same to their parents.

“When they’re not looking, set the parental controls on the TVs of your family members to block Fox News,” the handout said. “Fox News spreads bigotry and hatred,” she wrote.

The so-called teacher is afraid of the totalitarian government? She’s totalitarian and she’s nuts.

At one point she said that after the Pittsburgh murders, Fox News had a guest on sending out dog whistles.

She picked some very far-left people for them to follow on Twitter.

The paper also asks students to read “real news,” and includes sources like NBC, MSNBC and The New York Times among many others.

NC State professor Michaela DeSoucey hands out paper instructing students to block Fox News from parents’ TVs, “turn out against Trump”

A response from the school:

Upon reflection, Dr. DeSoucey has realized she erred in crossing the line between educating and advocating. She has apologized, we have accepted her apology, and we consider this matter closed.
Sincerely,
Jeffery P. Braden, PhD
Professor of Psychology
Dean, College of Humanities and Social Sciences

sounds like FAKE NEWS that has been spread 1700 times on Fakebook

It’s an Onion hit piece that had the “fox and friends” cast allegedly saying that the mail bomber had his heart in the right place but was a little misguided.

But on psycho is as good as another, right? and “TRUMP!!!?!!!!”

>>The hag seemed to want to know what I watched on TV, who were the contractors working on the house at whatever time, and told me to not speak to anyone without being spoken to first.

“Upon reflection, Dr. DeSoucey has realized she erred in crossing the line between educating and advocating.”

So, she was told to STHU?

Surprised to hear it was at NCSU - fired her anyway. State has gone down hill from years ago since it became NC’s dumping ground for keeping NC’s numbers right overall for public college admissions by state both for students and faculty!!!!!!!!

No joke. Sounds like a great way to get a bag of gravel for Christmas.

I will say that almost 100%, profs in engineering, chemistry, and physics were pretty impressive people, even the ones that I didn’t like personally. The profs that I had for gen-ed classes, not so much. The one in this article clearly hasn’t progressed past the maturity of a 24 year old college student. I remember those idiots telling me, “Enjoy this while you can, they’re the greatest years of your life.” BS, I wanted to get an engineering job and couldn’t get out of there fast enough. Now that I’ve been an engineer for 19 years, going back to college really appeals to me—NOT!

I was really lucky to have been born when I was and went to college when profs just TAUGHT THE SUBJECT they were hired to teach and NOTHING else!

My father handed me that stupid line of BS, re "THESE ARE THE BEST YEARS OF YOUR LIFE." and I knew that that was just garbage. Just HOW taking exam after exam, writing paper after paper, some the size of a pretty heft book, for some of my classes was NOT "fun"; it was hard work, which I wasn't getting paid money for doing!

If I had to go back to college, today, I wouldn't last a full day...I won't EVER be PC, a lefty, nor harassed by some worthless, brain dead supposed "prof", who knows nothing factual at all, about anything.

Leftists are incapable of hearing ideas they don’t like or agree with. As a result, they are incapable of debating those ideas and want to deny those ideas from being spoken. They deny free speech because this and are intellectually dishonest when they claim that the ideas they don’t want to hear are racist, homophobic, sexist and all the other “ists”. They truly are pathetic mental midgets!

How did academia grow to despise our nation so much?

The Hard-Left took over academia in the 60's, and put people like Bill Ayers and Angela Davis in professorships.

Good people (ie - Republicans) stood by and did nothing to stop it.

And then the Radicals took over K-12 as well.

Good movie that should be required viewing in a sane world.

I like the radio series very much as well.
