Controversy keeps growing in IU-ChaCha deal
Tim Faulkner ยท 08/09/07 10:59AMThe Herald-Times of Bloomington, Indiana has followed up (subscription required) on our previous story questioning the Indiana University-ChaCha deal. The local paper's charitable conclusion: Neither side lied, but both independently made contradictory "inadvertent errors." As did the newspaper, in reporting on a new development โ without pointing out the glaringly obvious ChaCha link. Newly appointed Indiana University trustee Jack Gill is not a full-time resident of Indiana, a requirement for trustees appointed by the Governor to the University โ but he's also a venture capitalist and major investor in ChaCha (PDF).
