We have already established that Professor Paul Campos of the University of Colorado Law School is deeply ignorant about the First Amendment and academic freedom. It turns out he's also a bit shaky on defamation, which is what's at issue when you make a series of damaging factual assertions about a colleague, intended to support the case for dismissing or disciplining him. Unless every one of them turns out to be true (and neither Professor Campos nor anyone else knows whether they are), prudence might suggest more restraint. (Moral integrity might recommend restraint as well, but we have already established its absence in this instance.)
