Milwaukee School of Arts teacher Travis Sarandos is under fire for allegedly saying 'it's awesome that he's dying' following Limbaugh's lung cancer news.
Milwaukee Teacher Placed on Leave After Allegedly Tweeting He Hopes Rush Limbaugh Dies Quickly From CancerA teacher in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, has been placed on leave after he allegedly tweeted disparaging remarks about Rush Limbaugh, the conservative political commentator who recently revealed he has lung cancer.
"Rush Limbaugh absolutely should have to suffer from cancer. it's [sic] awesome that he's dying, and hopefully it is as quick as it is painful," Sarandos allegedlly tweeted. Sarandos' Twitter account has since been deactivated.Bob Donovan, Alderman of Milwaukee's 8th District, called for Milwaukee Public Schools to take action against Sarandos.
"And he did not make his remarks in private. He made them on one of the most public of platforms where any of his students could easily have seen them. Mr Sarandos' remarks deserve discipline. In the meanwhile, he has no business in an MPS system classroom," Donovan said. "We are aware of Mr. Sarandos' actions and can confirm that he was not speaking on behalf of any students or staff of Milwaukee High School of the Arts or Milwaukee Public Schools," MPS spokeswoman Shahree Douglas said in a statement to WISN 12 News."The district is following policy and procedures related to personnel matters.
