That is his intent. The fact that the universities saw through his charade is a good thing. They don't want the negative media attention, and his crap to deal with constantly.
The advertisers thought she wasn't a good fit for them after what she said and left.

The fact that you are trying to strawman me as accepting another persons positions because I mention that it is free speech is just sad.

I will support the declaration of views expressed non-violently or without incitement of violence, even if I do not agree with those views.

If you have a problem with that then fine, but please try to not get confused in the future on the topic. Thanks in advance.

I'd never heard of her before this thread.

Sucks to be them.
Thank you.

Who else would berate teenagers after the massacre they’ve experienced.

Weak and insecure. And he has the audacity to talk about other people’s souls.
The guy who - at 30 - made himself the legal guardian of a 17-year old because she was too young to marry him. Oh yeah, he's a moral authority when it comes to teenagers.

Why do you hate the free market?

So naive. Her job is to suck up to the prejudices of an audience with predictable consumption patterns to make them tune in. Fox "News" can then go out and sell this very specific target audience to advertisers. The audience and the advertisers they bring in are her deliverable, not her commentary. And if she makes herself distasteful to said advertisers, she's hurting Fox's bottom line - and that is bad job performance.

What, you thought the quality of her analysis got her hired? That's almost adorable.

And you took that literally and personally I see. Y'all letting a kid speaking out of grief and anger hurt y'all feeling like that. You chose to take his words so personally. If you know that's not you, then what are you worrying about so much, this kid can't take your guns away.

He wasn't confrontational, he let the advertisers decide.
