I don't remember it that way. He did say the US deserved 9-11, and called people who worked in the World Trade Center "little Eichmanns". But his essay was kind of ignored until 2005. Then CU Boulder investigated him for academic misconduct and fired him. The committee concluded it wasn't serious enough to fire him, and he later successfully sued the university for firing him. Media was reporting on his firing as having major free speech implications. Academic misconduct should be punished. But to me it looks like one of the major motivations for his firing was his extremely offensive comments. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ward_Churchill#Activism_on_Native_American_issues https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ward_Churchill#Activism_on_Nat...
