Melissa Click garnered national attention when she shoved, and called security, on a journalist covering students gathering to protest race relations at the University of Missouri last fall.
It started when reporter Mark Schierbecker asked Click, "I'm media. Can I talk to you?" Click snapped back, "no. You need to get out."
When Schierbecker said, “no, I don't,” Click called out, “hey, who wants to help me get this reporter out of here? I need some muscle over here."
Click is still employed at the school, and interim chancellor Hank Foley said, "Dr. Click is frankly aggrieved by this whole situation. She had a moment of heated anger. I doubt very much she would do something like that again."
