CNN host Alisyn Camerota expressed surprise during a Friday interview that any colleges turned down David Hogg, the Parkland, Fla., high school student who has become a major figure in the nation's gun violence debate.
Fox News host Laura Ingraham apologized to Hogg and lost advertisers after she mocked him on Twitter for being rejected by four colleges.
“I am stunned that four colleges rejected you,” Camerota said on Friday. “What kind of dumbass colleges don’t want you? You have taken the country by storm. How do you explain this? Did they reject you before the Parkland massacre?”
Hogg said that his rejection letters came after the Feb. 14 shooting at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
But he said he wasn’t worried about it because “you can still change the world” regardless of what colleges accept you.
Asked if he is still planning on going to college in September, Hogg said he might take a year off to hit the campaign trail working for candidates.
