Churchill must go
EDITORIAL
THE PUEBLO CHIEFTAIN
 WARD CHURCHILL, the phoney Indian ethnic studies professor notorious for defaming victims of the 9/11 attacks on America, should be fired by the University of Colorado for gross academic misconduct.
| Okay. That's today's statement of the obvious... |
That's the recommendation of CU's research misconduct committee - and we heartily concur. The committee agreed with an earlier investigative panel that Mr. Churchill intentionally falsified his research, plagiarized other people's work and was ghostwriter of articles he later cited as "outside" sources. Now that two academic peer groups have come to essentially the same conclusion, a final recommendation will be forwarded by the provost and a dean to interim CU-Boulder Chancellor Phil DiStefano.
| Moving with blinding speed, aren't they? |
Mr. Churchill exposed himself to close scrutiny by calling those who died in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks "little Eichmanns," a slur comparing them to Adolf Eichmann, a mastermind of Nazi Germany's campaign of genocide in World War II. Even though the 9/11 slander was set aside as an expression of constitutionally protected speech, the subsequent inquiry revealed that Mr. Churchill has been an academic fraud for years. His own actions have made him a public figure worthy of scorn.
| Amazing how many of his peers haven't been willing to scorn him, though... |
