| Money pays: D'Souza in jumpoff scandal |
I admit that my first thought was: "Dinesh D'Souza managed to snag a jumpoff?!" Then I remembered his wealth and fame. Anyway, he was busted with his mistress (whom he tried to pass off as his fiancee). This all went down before he filed for divorce from his wife....and at a Christian values conference no less. From the Associated Press: "
The King’s College board announced the
review on Tuesday, the day the conservative Christian newsmagazine WORLD
reported event organizers had confronted Dinesh D’Souza about sharing a
hotel room with a woman he introduced as his fiancee. D’Souza filed for
divorce from his wife, Dixie D’Souza, a few days after the conference,
California court records show. The event, Truth for a New Generation, was held the weekend of Sept. 28 in South Carolina."
The conservative commentator and filmmaker tells his side: "In a brief telephone interview with The
Associated Press, Dinesh D’Souza, who became president of The King’s
College [which is a college that trains Christian leaders] in 2010, said he and his wife have been 'living in a state of
separation for two years.' He denied sharing the hotel room with the
other woman. 'Obviously, I wouldn’t have introduced
her as my fiancee if I thought we were doing anything improper,' D’Souza
said, adding they have called off their engagement."
