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

A North Carolina State University professor apologized after handing out a paper that suggested students “block Fox News” from family members.

“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.”




The paper was tweeted by Twitter user @Cameron_Vinson, who said his friend received the packet from his sociology professor.

“This was handed out by my friends sociology professor at NC State hahahahah my favorite is ‘block Fox News from your parents TV when they’re not looking,'” Cameron tweeted on Monday.


“Upon reflection, Dr. DeSoucey has realized she erred in crossing the line between educating and advocating,” said NC State College of Humanities and Social Sciences dean Jeffery Braden, according to The Hayride. “She has apologized, we have accepted her apology, and we consider this matter closed.”

The paper also asks students to read “real news,” and includes sources like NBC, MSNBC and The New York Times among many others.
“If a news source has fired a reporter for ethics violations in the recent past, even better,” the paper said.

The handout then asked students to follow people on Twitter like MSNBC journalist Rachel Maddow, former President Barack Obama’s speech writer Jonathan Favreau and MSNBC political correspondent Joy Reid.

DeSoucey’s handout also told students to tell people they knew to only call 911 for “REAL emergencies.”

“Tell your white friends, family and acquaintances to stop calling the police on people for being AWB (alive while black) and save 911 for REAL emergencies,” the paper said.

  1. The professor works for the STATE government, specifically the university of north carolina, and he took an oath of office,

    Before entering upon the duties of an office, a person elected or appointed to the office shall take and
    subscribe the following oath:
    "I, .............., do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and maintain the Constitution and laws of
    the United States, and the Constitution and laws of North Carolina not inconsistent therewith, and that I
    will faithfully discharge the duties of my office as .............., so help me God."
    N.C. Const. art. VI, § 7.

    Perjury of oath of office, under 18 USC 1001 IS A FELONY! He is making war upon the very document he swore to support and maintain! He has irrefutably demonstrated that he is a perjurer of his oath of office!
