Former Obama Campaign Spokesman Teaching ‘Crisis Management’ Course

NYU ‘non-credit’ class only $625

Former Obama campaign spokesman Ben LaBolt is teaching an online course at New York University on "crisis management."

The six-week class costs only $625 and begins next month.

"Many campaigns are defined by the ways in which the candidate and the campaign team manage crises," a description of the course reads. "Challenging times often become key moments in a campaign, and while it is difficult to prepare for them, there are strategies and techniques that can––and should––be applied."

"This class uses a case-study approach to help you to understand firsthand the various considerations (including legal and ethical) a campaign crisis expert must deal with, as well as ways to make quick decisions under pressure in the interest of the candidate," it said.

The course is listed as a "Non-Credit Distance Learn Hybrid."

LaBolt is one of the many former Obama advieors who have reportedly sold out and cashed in, as he now fights against teacher’s unions at a firm he founded with former White House press secretary Robert Gibbs.

LaBolt can draw on past experiences such as having to defend the Obama administration during the disastrous Obamacare rollout.
