Cornell Law School professor William A. Jacobson said he’s “never seen” anything like the backlash he’s facing from some students and staff at his school, who are calling for him to be fired for blog posts he wrote that fact-checked and criticized elements of the George Floyd-related protests. “This is so far beyond political correctness,” the tenured professor said Thursday in an exclusive interview on "The Ingraham Angle." The professor also wrote that he has been in an "awkward relationship" with his fellow faculty members for years since he launched his website, Legal Insurrection, in 2008. I found his recent posts to be both offensive and poorly reasoned.”Jacobson said the dean’s statement “falsely characterized” what he wrote. He added that Cornell faculty who say the “craziest, most offensive things from a left-wing perspective,” are never called out for their statements.
