Alleged FAKE INDIAN Ward Churchill loses his appeal over firing from CU for fraud and plagiarism

You can find the full story HERE in the Denver Post online.

For those who need reminding, Churchill claims to be an Indian, but has never been able to prove it in any way.  Despite that, he taught Ethnic Studies at University of Colorado, until he wrote an essay which brought him to the attention of the press and politicians.  CU investigated whether or not the essay was protected by the First Amendment (it was), but during that investigation, other charges where brought forth, with support and evidence, that Churchill committed plagiarism and fraud in his scholarly publications, which led to him being fired for good cause.

A lower court in Colorado denied his effort to get his job back, which has now been upheld by the Colorado Court of Appeals.  His lawyer promises to take it all the way to the US Supreme Court if necessary.  

Purely editorial comment - good luck with that, Mr. Churchill...let us know how that turns out for you.

As to the question as to whether Mr. Churchill is actually Indian or not, HERE is a story on that issue.  Enjoy.
