UC-Berkeley pays $70,000 to settle anti-conservative bias lawsuit, considers changes to speaker policies

Just a ‘fraction’ of what conservative groups already spent on lawyers?
Nearly nine months after a federal judge ordered them to start settlement talks, conservative groups and the University of California-Berkeley each claimed victory in a First Amendment challenge to the public university’s policies on “high-profile speakers,†“major events†and security fees.
The Berkeley College Republicans and Young America’s Foundation filed suit in April 2017 after the university refused to honor an agreed-upon speaking date for the anti-immigration writer Ann Coulter, and imposed new “curfew and venue restrictions†on their speakers.
