Les Kinsolving’s June 28 WorldNetDaily column was devoted to recounting a pair of “senior-citizen sex scandals” — a professor a New Jersey’s Fairleigh Dickinson University (which Kinsolving misspells) who was allegedly running a prostitution ring in New Mexico, and a former president of the University of New Mexico who was arrested as part of the prostitution sting. Kinsolving concluded by stating, “This begs the question: How much in federal funding goes to Farleigh-Dickinson University and to the University of New Mexico? And will either of these institutions lose any such money because of their professor’s and their former president’s involvement in prostitution?”
But Kinsolving doesn’t explain why either university should lose any federal funding, which he seems to be rooting for. He provides no evidence that either man used university resources in their alleged prostitution ring, or that university officials had any knowledge whatsoever of the men’s alleged activitites. Given the apparent absence of both, the only logical answer to Kinsolving’s question is no.
Kinsolving, of course, would have known this had he bothered to do even the most basic research into answering the question he raised.
