The University of Wisconsin Board of Regents voted unanimously Friday to fire a communications professor who wanted to keep his job after he was fired as chancellor of one of the system’s campuses for producing pornographic films.

Joe Gow, who served as UW-La Crosse’s chancellor for nearly 17 years, argued last week that he should retain a teaching position on campus. But the university’s lawyers argued that he behaved unethically, violated the terms of his employment contract, damaged the university’s reputation and compromised its mission.

The regents met in closed session Friday morning before publicly voting to fire Gow. There was no public discussion before the board vote.

Gow said he is considering filing a lawsuit to keep his teaching job. He did not immediately respond to a message Friday morning.

Gow has been on paid leave from his faculty position since the regents fired him as chancellor in 2023, shortly after university leadership became aware of the videos posted on pornographic websites.

The case has drawn national attention both for the salaciousness of a high-ranking university official making and speaking publicly about pornographic films and for the questions it raises about free speech rights.

Gow argued that his videos and two e-books that he and his wife Carmen published about their experiences in adult films were protected by the First Amendment. The university’s attorney argued that Gow’s videos themselves were legal, but that they were not protected by his employment contract.

Zach Greenberg, an attorney with the free speech advocacy group Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression, called the regents’ decision “a major blow to academic freedom and the right to free expression.”

“FIRE has said time and time again: Public universities cannot sacrifice the First Amendment to protect their reputations,” Greenberg said. “We are disappointed that the UW has caved to donors and politicians by alienating a tenured professor.”

Republican lawmakers already view Wisconsin’s university system as a liberal incubator. Last year they forced the company to scale back its diversity initiatives. System President Jay Rothman has tried to avoid further angering conservatives as he seeks approval for an $855 million increase in the next state budget.

Gow’s hope of teaching in the classroom again was rejected by his department head, Linda Dickmeyer. She said that because Gow had not taught in 20 years, he would be assigned general education courses, but she declined to allow him to return to teaching in any capacity.

Gow was criticized in 2018 for inviting porn actress Nina Hartley to speak on campus. She received $5,000 from tuition fees for her performance. The university said he came up with the idea of ​​bringing her to campus after filming a pornographic video with her.

Gow and his wife’s e-books were written under the pseudonyms “Monogamy with Benefits: How Porn Enhances Our Relationships” and “Married with Benefits – Our Real Adventures in the Adult Industry.” But they also star in a YouTube channel called “Sexy Healthy Cooking,” in which the couple cooks meals with porn actors.

Bye weeks are usually welcome during football season. But it was necessary for Wisconsin.

Not only did the Badgers lose 42-10 to No. 4 Alabama two weeks ago, but they also lost quarterback Tyler Van Dyke for the season to a torn ACL. Suddenly, backup quarterback Braedyn Locke is now QB1 on the depth chart.

Locke’s first start will come Saturday in UW’s Big Ten opener at No. 13 USC. The Trojans lost 27-24 to No. 12 Michigan last week in Ann Arbor.

With the November presidential election less than 40 days away, liberal celebrities are increasingly speaking out. Howard Stern recently caused controversy after attacking Donald Trump voters as “stupid” and saying he didn’t care if he lost them as listeners. But Stern wasn’t the first liberal celebrity to tell conservatives not to listen or watch.

Here are four prominent radio, television and music personalities who have bluntly told conservative fans that they are unwelcome.

1. Stern “hates” Trump voters and doesn’t mind losing “half of my audience.”

Earlier this month, SiriusXM radio host Howard Stern said he hates supporters of former President Trump.

“I don’t agree with Trump politically, I don’t think he should come anywhere near the White House. I don’t hate the guy. I hate the people who vote for him. I think she’s stupid. I do.” “I’ll be honest with you, I have no respect for you,” he said on “The Howard Stern Show.”

The Liberal shock player said he didn’t mind losing “half.” [his] “Listeners” who disagree with his policies and fully expect “hate mail” from Trump supporters after this polarizing statement.

It is not the first time that Stern has taken action against Trump supporters. Before the 2020 election, he said: “I don’t hate Donald. I hate you for voting for him, because you have no intelligence. Because you can’t see what’s going on with the coronavirus because you can’t see what the Justice Department is doing. I hate you. I don’t want you here.

Howard Stern says he ‘hates’ everyone who votes for Trump: ‘They’re stupid, I have no respect for them’

2. Jimmy Kimmel on the fact that Republicans aren’t watching: “Well, not a good ending, but ending.”

In 2017, ABC late-night talk show host Jimmy Kimmel was asked whether he feared he was driving away his audience with his increasing left-wing turn after former President Trump entered the White House.

“I saw – I don’t know if it was a study or a poll or a combination of those two things – that I was equally popular with Republicans and Democrats about three years ago, and then the Republican numbers went way down. like 30% or whatever,” Kimmel said in a 2017 interview on “CBS Sunday Morning.”

“And as a talk show host, it’s not ideal, but I would do it again in a heartbeat,” he continued.

“Good riddance?” The reporter followed.

“Well, not a good riddance, but liberation,” Kimmel replied.

A January 2024 Media Research Center study found that 81% of all political jokes told on major late-night comedy shows in 2023 were aimed at conservatives. Kimmel’s show had the highest rate of anti-conservative jokes of all six shows. Of the 2,215 political jokes made on “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”, 1,960, or 88%, were aimed at conservatives.

3. Paramore lead singer Hayley Williams says of DeSantis voters: “You’re fucking dead to me.”

“Paramore” singer Hayley Williams hounded supporters of Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis and former President Trump during an onstage appearance.

During a concert in Atlantic City, New Jersey in 2023, the rock singer insulted those in the audience who were thinking of voting for then-presidential candidate DeSantis 2024 presidential election.

“And if you vote for Ron DeSantis, you’re dead to me,” she said.

Last week at her band’s iHeartRadio Music Festival, Williams urged listeners to vote against Trump unless they wanted to “live in a dictatorship.”

“Project 2025 is Donald Trump’s plan to control and punish women, poor people, people of color and the LGBTQ+ community. “It’s time for all Americans to come together and finally defeat the Trump agenda,” she said directly into the camera. “And the only way to do that is to confront him at the polls.”

4. Pink tells pro-lifers to “Never listen to my music again”

After the US Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June 2022, singer Pink took action against pro-life conservatives.

“Let’s be clear: If you believe that government belongs in a woman’s womb, in a business, or in a gay man’s marriage, or that racism is OK – THEN PLEASE, IN THE NAME OF YOUR LORD, NEVER LISTEN TO MY MUSIC AGAIN . AND ALSO F— RIGHT. the singer wrote on X (then Twitter), according to People Magazine and other media outlets. The social media post has since been deleted.

The singer recently performed at the 2024 Democratic National Convention.

Conservative film critic Christian Toto, host of the podcast “The Hollywood in Toto,” told Fox News Digital these celebrities should “be careful what they wish for.”

“Today’s stars live in bubble-like communities where they don’t see, meet or be challenged by people with opposing views. They only read a select number of news outlets and have mentally demonized “the other.” For Stern, his millions are already in the bank, and now all he cares about is the approval of the Hollywood rockers who adopt this pose and think that they are nervous.

“Kimmel recently predicted that the end of late-night TV will come sooner than you think. His willingness to kiss off half his audience helps explain why,” Toto told Fox News Digital.

Fox News’ Yael Halon, Nikolas Lanum and Gabriel Hays contributed to this report.

Twice in the same week in May 2023, sheriff’s deputies restrained and put 10-year-old Caleb Killingsworth in the back of a patrol car.

The second time, Caleb, an autistic child who weighed less than 90 pounds and stood less than 5 feet tall, according to his mother, was restrained on the ground and then handcuffed. The fifth grader came away with scrapes on his face.

Both times school staff called law enforcement after Caleb walked away from the Pine Tree Center, a specialized school in Lake Orion, Michigan, with a program for “emotionally impaired” students, a state designation that applies to roughly 10,000 Michigan students with behavioral disabilities.

There are at least two dozen such programs across Michigan, serving some of the state’s most vulnerable students with complex behavioral issues that may cause them to scream, swear, scratch or kick others, and run away. But critics say the schools are failing many of those students, evidenced by incidents where youths are restrained and secluded in the throes of a crisis, or in Caleb’s case, where law enforcement are called in to take over for school staff.

How do businesses fail inspections?

Businesses fall out of compliance when they have too many violations, issues that can cause a foodborne illness, when a problem can’t be fixed right away, such as bug and rodent infestations, and more. But most violations are minor and are corrected while an inspection is taking place.

Typically, establishments are reinspected within 10 days to ensure they are following the rules.

It’s rare for a business to shut down over a failed inspection. But it can happen. Usually, closures are temporary, voluntary and due to major problems, such as sewage backups, pest infestations, and water or power outages.
