FIRE on 'The Laura Ingraham Show' This Morning
Nationally syndicated radio program The Laura Ingraham Show will feature a segment today on the University of Minnesota's plan to impose a political litmus test that would require both current and prospective students to hold mandated political beliefs before being admitted and receiving a degree. Katherine Kersten of the Minneapolis Star Tribune will discuss the case starting at 11:15 a.m. (ET), and audio from various FIRE videos will be used to convey the severity of the situation at U of M.
