Why? Why would that matter? Ward Churchill was a CU problem, and no
one at CU cared one tiny bit about Florida, NH, ME or NY, and they
cared even less about what a shyster llike Bill O'Reilly was saying
from day to day.
That's my point, it was all local. Because of the massive amount of
*local* MSM coverage, the *local* elected regents had to respond to
their *local* constituents once the *local* MSM overkill coverage --
which bettered O'Reilly's story count by orders og magnitude -
prompted Churchill's longtime critics in the truly indigenous
community to push their long-ignored complaints about his questionable
scholarship.
No one here even *thought* of Bill O'Reilly much less watched him.
