20:32Now PlayingThe Koala v. University of California San Diego : Take a joke, UCSD!
YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThe Koala is a student newspaper in the style of The Onion. The Koala published an article mocking the concept of safe spaces. Two days later, the student government defunded all student media groups.
The Koala suggests the student government's move may have potentially been retaliation for the article. I am also somewhat inclined to agree :)
The 9th circuit reviews this case. Because UCSD is a public university, the first amendment is implicated. The question is whether the action of the student government was proper, and what remedy should be provided.
We also read the offending article, and review the cover of The Koala's "best of" issue.
We conclude that The Koala is awesome and that we support everything they stand for!
Tune in as we review the case of The Koala, and we realize just how funny a farce can be when the target of the farce refuses to accept it in good humor.
