It's bad enough they're willing to fuck their students, but to LIE about it is even worse.

1. What on earth is that link?

I'm not clicking it, because its unrecognizable.

I'd advise anyone else not to click it, either.

Who knows where it might take you.

6. Daily Kos

It's ok-- the link is safe-- it is Daily Kos

[MineralMan]

9. A direct link was posted in the thread.

Your link was some sort of indirect link, via a third party. And not one I recognize.

Direct links to known sites. I won't click anything else. Not on today's internet.

University of Alabama robs students of $26.5 million because the donor spoke out for women's rights

3. Now that's better.

Thanks!

4. Anyone else sense the irony and hypocrisy here?

I thought trustee boards are normally expected to remain politically neutral.....

We can likely safely bet that dozens of right-wing donors have taken political stands that are contrary to UA student interest and the interests of Alabama in general. Where are their statements on those issues?

Keep on sinking backward, Alabama. Mass brainwashing and elections have consequences.

5. Emails released by the University of Alabama contradict this account by Culverhouse.

There's more to it than that. You can read the emails here.

Emails released by the University of Alabama contradict this account by Culverhouse.

They show a dispute over how the school was to be run.

The order to return his money was sent four days before he made any statements about abortion.

2. In fact, Culverhouse demanded his money back on May 24. He was disappointed by leadership options for the law school. On May 25, the UA Chancellor ordered officials to return his money.

Culverhouse made his remarks about abortion on May 29

Not my work! I’m just tweeting

Then feel free to attribute & link to @WarOnDumb & @abbeycrain, the local reporters who have pushed back against the erroneous reporting from the very beginning.

7. Yeah, I don't care how much the guy is donating...

he shouldn't be injecting himself into hiring/firing decisions.

8. It looks like the lies were from Culverhouse, not the University.
