Give me a break - Brett Mills, asshat of the year

This is a perfect example of the dreck, the utter cluelessness and muddled thinking of what is called academia these days. From the UK Guardian:
Wildlife documentaries infringe animals' privacy, says report
Wildlife documentary makers are infringing animals' rights to privacy by filming their most private and intimate moments, according to a new study.

Footage of animals giving birth in their burrows or mating crosses an ethical line that film-makers should respect, according to Brett Mills, a lecturer in film studies at the University of East Anglia.
I sincerely believe that the overall quality of a College education can be markedly improved by shutting down any class that has the word "studies" in its name. They are all useless and a waste of the student's time. They may be fun to take and good for an easy grade but they contribute nothing to the overall education. Posted by DaveH at May 1, 2010 8:48 PM
