Update: Weather cancels WSU speech

Whether students like it or not, Milo Yiannopoulos is coming to Pullman.

The provocative far-right commentator is scheduled to speak at Washington State University on Thursday evening, less than a week after one of his speeches was canceled at the University of California, Davis.

Yiannopoulos, who is British and identifies as gay, is an editor of the “alt-right” Breitbart News website and is permanently banned from Twitter for leading a harassment campaign against “Ghostbusters” actress Leslie Jones. Since September he has visited dozens of college campuses as part of his “Dangerous Faggot” speaking tour.

There were rumblings that his WSU appearance would be canceled, too, as the event briefly disappeared from the calendar on his tour website. But a spokesman for Yiannopoulos said Wednesday the event will move forward/ Chad Sokol , SR. More here.
