In 2016, Mastrangelo assisted in the creation of Professor Watchlist, a website by Turning Point USA that lists U.S. professors deemed to "discriminate against conservative students, promote anti-American values and advance leftist propaganda in the classroom."<ref>https://www.insidehighered.com/news/2016/11/22/new-website-seeks-register-professors-accused-liberal-bias-and-anti-american-values</ref> After its launch, the website was criticized by members of academia, who claimed its purpose was to threaten professors.<ref>https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/dec/02/professor-watchlist-website-academic</ref><ref>http://time.com/4588165/professor-watchlist-silence-conservative/</ref> Mastrangelo reacted by defending the watchlist, stating that the website is "helpful" for conservative students who want to "know if a professor has actually made headlines for past behavior,"<ref>https://www.buzzfeed.com/amphtml/krishrach/this-website-wants-students-to-publicly-shame-anti-american</ref> before signing up for classes, meaning literal headlines as the website is a media aggregation site relying solely on secondary media sources like the way [[Drudge Report]] is presented.  The size of the site is such that Pennsylvania, a typical state with a fairly large population, lists only ten professors.
