Jerry Falwell Jr. Calls Liberty University Lawsuit Against Him Power Grab , Full of Lies
On 4/17/21 at 4:40 PM EDT
Jerry Falwell Jr., the former president of Liberty University and a once-influential evangelical Christian, said Saturday that he would defend himself vigorously after the university announced a lawsuit against him earlier this week.
On Thursday, Liberty University said they were seeking millions of dollars in damages in a civil lawsuit against Falwell, over allegations that he breached an employment contract, and withheld from the school key details about a personal scandal that resulted in public scrutiny last year.
But Falwell called the lawsuit a power grab on Saturday, and said the action was full of lies and half-truths, through a series of tweets.
