Cancel culture reaches Mizzou marketing professor

(KFTK) – University of Missouri Professor Joel Poor is under fire for a comment he made to a student during introductions to his class over Zoom:

"Anyone else from outside the United States?" asked Poor.
"I am," replied the student.
"And where are you from?" replies Poor.
"China."
"China? I've heard of China, where are you from in China,"  questions Poor.
"Actually, Wuhan."
"Wuhan?! Let me get my mask on, hold on," chuckles Poor.

 "There are activists now at the University of Missouri calling for him to be fired for his 'racist and xenophobic comments' that he delivered in his Marketing 3000 class yesterday," says Cox.

Marc says he knows a student in the class who says, "the student from Wuhan, not only was he not offended, he knew the professor was joking with him!"
