Student was fired for expressing his conservative views

[Figaro]

<div class="bbWrapper">A junior at the University of Michigan says he is being attacked for expressing his conservative views.<br /> Student Omar Mahmood was fired from the “mainstream” student newspaper, Michigan Daily, over a satirical column that he wrote for the Michigan Review, a conservative student publication.<br /> <br /> <a href="http://nation.foxnews.com/2014/12/18/student-says-his-home-was-egged-he-was-fired-conservative-column" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="nofollow ugc noopener">Student Says His Home Was Egged He Was Fired for Conservative Column - Fox Nation</a><br /> That`s Ok to be liberal or progressive but if you`re try to keep your consernative line (traditional marriage, for example) you will be attacked...only liberals can be satirical. If conservatives do it its automatically racist...</div>

Are we sure he wasn&#039;t fired for just being a shitty writer? That essay was erratic and poorly put together. In fact its barely a satire. I&#039;m not sure even the writer knows what it is.</div>
