Fox News slanders the nicest, sweetest, most gentle man that ever walked the planet

OK. For one thing, I think that professor is just looking to get his name heard. He's looking for his next book deal. Talk about entitlement.

For another, I would much rather not look at the small but vocal minority who are making my generation look bad, but to the people with whom I've surrounded myself. We are working very hard (some of us until 11pm at night with a bus commute that follows-- that's you EH) to do good work. We are working extra-hard to make our dreams come true (and frankly, I don't know about you but my dreams have little to do with what is coming to me after I achieve it-- my dreams just involve the means to be creative and to be free from worry.) And damn it... every one of us IS special. Flaws and all. Regardless of what we do. Because of who we are.

This does not, of course, mean that we "deserve" anything more than anyone else. But it means we should treat ourselves with care. We should treat everyone else around us with care. This is what Mr. Rogers-- and, frankly, what Christ (are you listening, Faux ~~Christians~~ News)-- was saying.
