KNOXVILLE — The University of Tennessee College of Law Dean Melanie D. Wilson said Tuesday that no disciplinary action will be taken against one of its law professors and contributing columnist for USA TODAY and the News Sentinel who urged motorists to run over demonstrators blocking traffic in Charlotte, N.C.
“The tweet was an exercise of his First Amendment rights,” Wilson wrote in a post on the law school’s website.
“Nevertheless, the tweet offended many members of our community and beyond, and I understand the hurt and frustration they feel.”
The law school had begun an investigation after a Glenn Reynolds’ tweet.
Twitter briefly suspended Reynolds’ account after he responded to a tweet from a TV news station Wednesday night in Charlotte that showed protesters — angered by the police shooting of a black man — on Interstate 277.
“Run them down,” he wrote.
Reynolds, the creator of the Instapundit blog, tweets from the handle @Instapundit.
