Story repeats inaccuracies about Van Jones in advance of his visit to Kalamazoo College (letter)

Here is what the Gazette said.

Van Jones, activist who resigned from Obama White House, to speak at Kalamazoo College

That same year he was asked to resign from his White House post after his past involvement with a Sept. 11 conspiracy group, a radical group with Marxist roots and past statements against Republicans came to light, according to The Washington Post.

I'd like to take a moment to comment on what I find to be a troubling presentation of Van Jones in the Kalamazoo Gazette.

In my role as chairperson of the political science department at Kalamazoo College and thus a primary co-sponsor of the prestigious Weber Lecture to be given by Mr. Jones on Nov. 2, I feel a responsibility to address the misleading information now circulating about our guest.

Let me take particular exception to the claim that Mr. Jones is a 9/11 conspiracy theorist who was somehow exposed for his "involvement" with Marxists.

Given the results of the first 4 years in Lansing, it would usually be safe to assume that what was being done was not working.  But not to our square in the round hole prodigy.  Her head, bleeding common sense like a rusty sieve, seems to leave not much else but the worst laid plans, which for some reason refuse to die.

Among those plans, is a celebration of the most destructive political religion known to man.  That "green" theology which give man no credit for the mastery of his surroundings and lays only blame for one manufactured crisis upon another, onto the incredible successes that should see only praise.
