Mob-Violence-Inciting University Of Missouri Media Professor Resigns
A victory for common-sense? Who knows anymore. But following the disgusting debacle on Mizzou's campus yesterday, Melissa Click - the media professor who incited mob violence against a reporter who was doing his job - has reportedly resigned. As NYTimes reports, Click noted in a statement, "I regret the language and strategies I used," which we suspect, roughly translated, means "I regret being caught bullying a reporter." The university seems to be distancing itself from Click, noting that her position was a "courtesy appointment."
If you haven’t seen the video of Click from yesterday, you must watch it immediately, and trust me, you need to watch it from beginning to end to truly understanding how dangerous Melissa’s Click’s request is. She is essentially advocating a mob of student inflict violence upon another student merely for taking pictures in public.
Thanks to this, what began as protests against systemic racism at the school has morphed into another prime example of how college campuses have devolved into ignorant, pro-censorship intellectual wastelands.
But now, as The NY Times reports, after calling for “some muscle” to remove a journalist from a public demonstration, the professor cut her ties to the university’s journalism school on Tuesday as protest organizers — and the professor herself — joined college officials in stating that journalists had a right to be present.
The professor, Melissa Click, an assistant professor in the department of communication had what was described as a “courtesy appointment” at the School of Journalism, meaning that she could serve on student thesis review panels. “Journalism school faculty members are taking immediate action to review that appointment,” David Kurpius, the dean of the school, said in a statement released Tuesday, stressing that Ms. Click did not teach at the school.
Dr. Kurpius said in a message on Twitter late Tuesday that Ms. Click resigned her courtesy appointment with the journalism school during a faculty meeting that day. It was unclear whether her status within the department of communication, which is in the College of Arts and Sciences, had changed.
In a statement on Tuesday, Ms. Click said, “I regret the language and strategies I used, and sincerely apologize to the M.U. campus community, and journalists at large, for my behavior, and also for the way my actions have shifted attention away from the students’ campaign for justice.” She said she had called the journalists involved to apologize, personally.
Mr. Tai said he accepted the apology.
“I never had ill will toward her and I felt bad when I heard she’d been getting threats,” he said. “I think this has been a learning experience for everyone involved, myself included, and I hope this blows over for both of us.”

Good riddance, moron. You're not fit to teach anyway.
yay
Fuck her.
Sadly, the system is overrun with people like her.
Maybe this hag will move into some interracial porn?
"I need some muscle over here."
<enter Long Dong Silver>

So she works (or did) for the "school of journalism", and she wanted the journalists thrown out?
Do you understand what has happened to "journalism" now? it is nothing more than an organ of the PC state.
How this woman was not immediately promoted to president of the university for that gut-level-honest true liberal outburst is beyond me. You would think at least a nice promotion and a raise.
The lesson to be learned here (that I saw many times in my years in adcademia) is don't go full retard until AFTER you get tenure. With tenure she could have told the leadership to F themselves.
Mizzou is heading in an interesting direction. Nobody worth a shit is gong to take top-level admin position there. The niggers now run the place. Just like South Africa, and the White House, when the niggers take over, ITS OVER.
You are owned by the bankers with their "divide and conquer" ages old strategy while you fight the racial wars they drive you into poverty.........
Coming to America: MOB rule ("or concerned student 1950" or "I love my blackness" rule). They were successful to get the University of Missouri System President Tim Wolfe to resign for no good reason. Good Night and Good Luck America!
Melissa Click resigns only to sign a lucrative multi-year contract with MSNBC to co-star with Rachel Maddow on a new LBGT comedy called "Going Straight".
If you don't even name the Jew, then what's the use of pointing out their diversity and divide and conquer strategies?
I hate when I can't upvote a Blues Brothers reference! +1 Mr. Universe!
A shining example of nature vs nurture; even indoctrinated Femi-nazis subordinate reason to emotion...basking in her emotional tirade.
Perhaps I'm just being harsh and she's cycling.....
Femi-commie.
Nazi was merely a derogatory term invented by a Jew when a group of people resisted their domination based on "equality" and feminism.
Give it time. She will now run the talk show circuit, write a book, get appointed to a full professorship at Brown, and Obama will bring her to the Whitehouse and tell the nation she's a martyr for the cause of righteousness.
Yup. In latter day America shit doesn't go down the toilet when you hit the plunger...it just swirls around and ends up sticking to the side until rescued by another piece of shit.
Naw, this bitch is toxic. She just fucked herself.
Spot on!
No. Wrong tribe.
What is the University Diversity Scam?

Would you take out a loan to pay for this???
Even more to the point --
Who killed the liberal arts?

Precisely, today's academics have totally drifted away from what their mission was.
Think of the bureaucratic life cycle and I think we can guess at what stage they're in at the moment.
It's white genocide.
Every other group has been given an ethnic identity and lobby groups but European Americans need more diversity until they're reduced to a minority in the countries that their forefathers died for.
End.
I believe MU just announced an expansive diversity program along with a new admin for the effort... nice.
Well, just another lame black cock sucking cultural marxist feminist tramp.
Kinda like this one:

Dude, we only watch porn on 8-Ball night.
Imagine the US where every ethnic group and religious sect has it's own "safe space". This crap is spreading. Houston had to vote on transgender bathrooms, now city councils all around the country are being asked to legislate tolerance.
Our congress will look like the University of MO if this continues.
And of course, Christian white male heterosexuals will be excluded from all "safe spaces", but not allowed to have one of their own.
She is an assistant communications professor. As such she received a courtesy appointment to the Journalism school/college. The Journalism college board was to meet yesterday to review/revoke that appointment. She apparently resigned from the Journalism college before that board review, not from her professorship. She still works at Mizzou.
As I understand the issue.
This is correct based upon the information available. She resigned from being on the journalism colleges review panel for phd canidate reviews.
She has not resigned her employment as a professor with the communications college. Where she makes almost all her money.
Until now the school of journalism that she was such a peak performer that they had her review their phd candidates even though she did not have a degree in journalism.
For THIS parents, students, and taxpayers go into debt.
That campus needs a different type of revolt.
If this is the face of the student body and staff, all of those people trying to remove the journalist require a semester course on the US Constitution that includes understanding our civil rights, and the journalist's rights under freedom of the press.
It wasn't only Ms. Click's pathetic behavior - all of those students coercing the journalist's inability to do his job should be slapped in court with a hefty financial fine.
Groupthink. Mob rule.
What she needs is a passport, yesterday.
One Marxist down, thousands still "teaching".
Another product of affirmative action. Worthless and stupid to the core!
Worthless?! I'm sure the Hillary campaign will put the shrieking to good use. Another green shoot as she moves into private industry and off the stipend rolls.
Do you really think anyone in industry will hire this creature? Come on!!
sure they will ......she's perfect for the fascist owned MSM........
When are they going to release all the evidence of the racism?
I haven't seen it yet.
Please hold.....
I demand to be put straight through. Putting me on hold is a microaggression and will not be tolerated.
pods
Micro and macroaggression against whites is not only justified, but required.
Pretty soon it will be called The Lily White Killing Fields.
Please hold.....while the evidence fabrication is underway....
We're surrounded by Hillarys. Hoooly fuck.
This is a point I've been trying to get across on ZH for a while now. I know people like that. You can't BELIEVE the shit they believe. You can't possible wrap your brain around the level of insanity and intransigence happening within their ranks. They are so absolutely sure they are right, everyone else deserves to be trampled in their mind. And they ENJOY DOING IT. And, sadly, their ranks now outnumber our ranks, from my personal observations.
You think Hillary won't be our next president? You might want to think about that a while longer. These people are no joke, no push-overs. And there's a shit ton of them.
Saw a Hillary for America bumper sticker on a car in the post office parking lot yesterday. Can't believe that anybody on God's green earth would want to be seen with a Hillary bumper sticker.
As a primary then middle school educator, we started seeing this me-centered entitlement persona by the mid-90s.
This neuroses has now spread throughout all of society. Millions have become thin-skinned individuals EXCEPT when their authority figures (bosses administrators) confronts them with job compliance, or when these folks lose their jobs. It's then that they meekly accept their fate -
Is this neurotice sense of entitlement a perverted mindset that contrasts their powerlessness in the face of the towering authority of bosses and administrators?
With a 20 ton hyra hammer, self important evil bitch. Ths is what we are getting for our tax money.
No thanks. ;)
"I regret the language and strategies I used,"
meaning, I sure wish I didn't get caught.
The equivalent of telling an offended individual, "I'm so sorry that you feel that way."
Teflon.
Power comes from the barrel of a gun, in the minds of communists anyway. Until that point, it comes from the mouths of useful idiots like this.
Get out bitch and tale Hillary with your dumb ass.
SHE IS STILL A PROFESSOR AT THE SCHOOL OF COMMUNICATIONS, THIS IS COMPLETE BULLSHIT SHE ONLY RESIGNED A 'COURTESY APPOINTMENT' IN THE SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM...
In other words, she's a professor in the most BS, useless department at the university.
Here, let me fix that:
SHE IS STILL A PROFESSOR AT THE SCHOOL OF COMMUNISM, THIS IS COMPLETE BULLSHIT SHE ONLY RESIGNED A 'COURTESY APPOINTMENT' IN THE SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM...
She's in the Comm Department. How "fit" does she have to be?
...and I hope this blows over for both of us.
Hahaha, the good guys win one! Bye bye Click.
LoL, maybe next time you'll think twice before open your fat mouth bitch.
The first amendment was on her side but her stupidity won the day.
No 1st amendment during the commission of this crime. Her words WERE the crime. Not to mention violating the Constitutional rights of the photographer.
I don't think she thought about this even once.
She just emoted.
That is half the problem with these pieces of crap.
Emotionally unstable and subconsciously programmed motives.
For the children!
the face of fascism coming to a campus near you.
In other, totally unrelated news, the White House has hired a new Media Consultant.
Or a command officer for the units policing the Free Speech Zones.
Cut to WH press room with all journos wearing earmuffs yet wincing in pain.
Chickens coming home to roost..
She got an immediate job offer from the White House when this broke yesterday.
And there is always the State Department. They are in need of another politically correct redhead extremist since Jan Psaki became too absurd to even pretend to take seriously.
Jen has some nice sweater puppies though... can't take that away from the dumb bitch...
Not sure who could junk such a nakedly true statement.
Had to check, since I didn't recognize the name. Yeah, you're right, Raymond.
She will get a job working on Hillary's presidential campaign now.
Nah, I'm sure there's a bog or two in Ireland that needs a new banshee. Sorry about the shreiking Irish ZH readers.
Ugly enough to be Obama's concubine.
I haven't read about this yet, but I already know Melissa Click is bad. Pardon me while I read the post and yesterday's post.
edit Confusing situation. Difficult to tell who is bad and who is good. Please, someone tell me what to think! I don't even know if Melissa Click is good or bad.
Ok, Melissa is bad and needs you to put some dick in her life. Help her get rid of some of that pent up energy.
I would be surprised if this "media professor" didn't resign. She kind of lost all credibility for teaching.
It's okay, she will join some feminist group where shrieking is a requirement.

One step away from Pol Pot and the "Killing Fields".
You're a star-belly sneech | You suck like a leech | You want everyone to act like you
Kiss ass while you bitch | So you can get rich | But your boss gets richer off you
Well you'll work harder | With a gun in your back | For a bowl of rice a day
Slave for soldiers | Till you starve | Then your head is skewered on a stake
Now you can go where people are one | Now you can go where they get things done
What you need, my son…
Is a holiday in Cambodia | Where people dress in black
A holiday in Cambodia | Where you'll kiss ass or crack
Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, Pol Pot, etc…
And it's a holiday in Cambodia | Where you'll do what you're told
A holiday in Cambodia | Where the slums got so much soul
-"Holiday in Cambodia" by the Dead Kennedys
For some reason I have been listening to the Dead Kennedys for the past month. It just feels right.
So you been to school for a year or two
And you know you've seen it all
In Daddy's car thinking you'll go far
Back east your type don't crawl
Play ethnicky jazz to parade your snazz
On your five-grand stereo
Bragging that you know how the niggers feel cold
And the slum's got so much soul
It's time to taste what you most fear
Right Guard will not help you here
Brace yourself, my dear
Brace yourself, my dear
It's a holiday in Cambodia
It's tough, kid, but it's life
It's a holiday in Cambodia
Don't forget to pack a wife
She could find a feminist group where fainting is a requirement rather that shrieking. Gotta love those feminists.. strong, independent women, who are totally and utterly incapable of preventing unwanted pregnancy to the point of needing to kill the unborn. They're totally capable of making decisions for their own lives, even for the lives of others as major leaders in society. But when it comes to their vaginas, well those things just reach out and inhale sperm totally without the consent of the educated, enlightened woman it belongs to and therefore those women must be provided the moral authority to kill that which they had nothing to do with.
She's in the Communications Department. How much credibility do they have to begin with? It's a dumping ground for athletes who barely got through high school and people who went to college just because they "wanted a degree in SOMETHING" without taking away from precious partying time.
Unlike the guy she was protesting, she actually did something that would warrant losing her job over.
Click Bait.
HA! took me a minute...
Well-played.
Melissa Click, an assistant professor in the department of communication...
she is good at communicating, i'll grant her that.
Suck it libtard!
See how that works!
And that is how you destroy oppression.
Cameras.
Fucking everywhere.
Works both ways.
I love that she pulled the corrupt cop move of trying to snatch/swat the camera.
"We have a right to walk forward." as they bowl that dude over.
I'd have called the police for an assault (unwanted touching) charge right there. Your rights end where another's begin.
How's that work on a crowded subway train?
Or for Altar Boys.
This is an open field, in a public space, and a purposeful act to violate him, by their own admission.
Cramming on a train is obviously quite different. You're effectively comparing getting trampled on Black Friday to getting curb stomped in an empty parking lot.
Well, unless you call it in as "hurtful" or "hate" speech then the police won't do anything about it.
Commissar Click. The ex Soviet Union is full of graves because of these people.
I have to say, that's respectful. Very respectful. I'll forgive her.
Would be great if any and all those who have fellen to also acknowledge wrong actions / thoughs
I thought she resigned an inter-department appointment. Not her job. Which one is it?
Well that is not good enough. Let's get some muscle over there and remove this pigwoman.
See what I did there?
Well, she did say to the guy " I don't care about your job". Karma is
a bitch
"Not coincidentally, I care very much about yours; specifically, that you no longer have one here."
And I don't care that she and her students will end up barristas or fast food workers begging for $15/hr, but still not understanding that real wages have stagnated since 1971 (abandoning gold standard) due to monetary and fiscal policy they love: spending other peoples money and borrowing to the stratosphere.
Aww how cute, a bunch of entitled micro aggressors including a bouncer. Just nuke the site from orbit.
I guess my white male privilege triggered a micro-aggressive patriarchal response from afar? Did I use all the correct PC terms?
And 'Hey Hey, Ho Ho' still seriously?
"Hey, hey, ho, ho, check your privilege, you're white you know"
Lorca's.
It's the only way to be sure.
On the brighter side, the journalist kid sounds like a quality individual. Kudos to him.
He was one of the few rational adults onsite.
Kudos to him and the parents who reared him.
A professor with a courtesy appointment that does not teach any classes?
What is your function? [/Captain Rockwell Torrey]
If she was shreiking at Mass-Amherst and you went there, wouldn't you chip in to have her sent to fucking Mizzou?
I think it's a stepping stone to a government job somewhere where she gets paid for doing literally nothing.
She already has one of those jobs.
She doen't teach any Journalism classes. She is an asst communications professor. See my comment above.
Obama?
Good thing she was not tenured.
Did she get an offer from the "esteemed" Columbia School of Journalism (NYC)? Or maybe TMZ?
Comrades. Meet the 1st Press Secretary of the Hillary Clinton Administration.
If hillary is elected i'll start GIVING gold away, sucker.
I will TAKE IT, sucker.
I was so offended by the total lack of caring for the US constitution that I had problems watching this the whole way through. There is some kind of sick demonic possession sweeping this country.
No. They are just fucking morons.
...and its called liberalism / political correctness
Law enforcement in that state was only interested in those that threatened the nasty professor, ignoring her incitement to mob violence and actual violence against student reporters, funny law they have in that state
If only people got this emotional over theft of their futures.
any word on if MSNBC has made her an offer yet?
Is she a member of the tribe?
Which one?
Most definitely a member of the LBGT tribe.
How many "courtesy appointments" go to conservatives.
She still works at the university. She still teaches. She gets paid the same as before. Her job, generally, has not changed substantially.
Her principal appointment is and was in the Dept of Communications (ie that's where her office is and where she teaches). She had a courtesy appointment in the School of Journalism. Courtesy appointments like this are given out as a matter of routine. They mean almost nothing. Losing one is embarassing, but that's it.
The university could move to fire her over this, but it hasn't done so yet and may not. Obviously, it should fire her over this, but that doesn't mean it will.
see my post below - she assaulted a student/interfered w/a reporting on public property but by god nobody's going to accuse HER response of being insufficient! ;-)
I think she has only resigned her bullshit cross-department courtesy J-school appointment, not her "real" comm department job.
These kind of fuckers would never resign one of those tenured meal tickets.
The only thing she is missing is the Rachel Dolezal hair.
... and a short vertical black moustache
Maoists, leaping forward
some kind of inciting an assault charge should be filed against her when she asked for muscle to get rid of the reporter
Some peoples 1st amendment rights are more important than others.
Unfortunately, these Universities have been over run with marxist feminists and they are applying their twisted logic and false narrative to other social aspects of University life. Time to purge these social science programs at our Universities of these feminazis.
With the quality of journalists in the US, I would not want to be within miles of them, both as a student, teacher or as a subject of their PC wrath.
Looking into they eyes of those students mobbing the camera dude,
I sense that not a single rational thought has ever crossed any of their tiny minds.
Even when he clearly explained to them what massive hypocrites they were being......just.............nothing!
Truly scary. This is how liberty dies. To the chanted catch phrases of moronic mobs.
First of all, you have to know what Hypocrite even means... And this ain't it! :>D
Thus it always is with sheep. Placid, compliant and fearful, looking for a leader, any leader.
Hey hey! Ho Ho! This stupid cunt has got to go!
