Here is already a discussion on it by the A-Sun portion of the board. I don't know why we must bring up and discuss every negative article posted about Liberty though. What gives this article more credibility than any other? Why can't also talk about the good articles? What is the fascination with seeing LU be criticized?

How about this article?
It's not a fascination when a school Prez is reported to be involved in inappropriate actions. If the claims are untrue it's a passing story. If the claims are true, then a level of scrunity is warranted.
Regarding a mention on the A Sun board, is that a true representation or a cursory and lame mention? Another board, with almost zero activity, being the release valve to discuss unfavorable information. No.
Lastly, I'm the proponent who asked the Board Mod to start a LU site in 2013. I've received criticisms because I bring a different perspective than most LU fans. One particular LU supporter (check my rating) has taken it upon himself to leave negative ratings when I state any critique of LU or Jr. In all my online battles, in years defending LU on this board, in heated exchanges supporting LU's desire to become a Sunbelt member, none ever gave a negative rep. But my request to the LU Mod to warn and remove the neg ratings from the over zealous LU fan were denied, and I expect this to continue with past non actions allowing this harassment to continue.
The irony here is my long time history as a LU fan, since the late 1970s, and supporter, both in attendance and financial, is how touchy and thin skinned some LU fans are.
An open dialogue is better than attempting to sweep unfavorable news under the rug. Open conversation gives those participating a reflection of how their views compare with others. Suppressing info is being fear based and weak.
