Sir, your presentation was far and away the best Tucker has aired to date
Tucker: Did you ever think it s one thing to have your political views or your journalism, because it is journalism whether you admit it or not, but maybe it s just not worth it? Did you ever think that?
WAJ: Uh, no, actually, I didn t <laugh>. I mean it s just, I don t know what it is. I guess it was just my personality not to give in and give up. But it was tough.
Tucker: Everybody gives in, everybody. Even people I know who I thought so much of and still like, but don t think much of anymore, they all bend the knee. Have you noticed this?
WAJ: Yes. I, I have. And it s tough. I did stand strong. I did beat the boycott [of my course by 15 student groups]. My class signup was over-subscribed, like it always is. So the boycott of my course failed. And I think I emerged from this whole thing stronger with my head high. Had I apologized. Yes, I agree&.
I am an anomaly at Cornell. I am an anomaly at Cornell Law School and I wear that badge proudly because I m ready to defend my viewpoints.
Tucker: Wow. Really a pretty extraordinary story.
Bill Jacobson is an inspiration and an example to us all. It tells you all you need to know that he has stood up to the harassment he’s gotten at Cornell Law School, where he has been boycotted by 15 student groups, and yet his classes are always over-subscribed.
