Now the hideous Hutton Hotel has taken to lying. In today's FOX news report on the craven cancellation of our Freedom Conference (oh, the irony), Steve Eckley, Senior Vice-President of the company that owns Hutton Hotel, told FOX:
…. the hotel received the deposit last week, management promptly returned the money after learning that two controversial speakers planned to attend the event.
That is a lie. We had a signed contract and a deposit in house in August.
“Our decision has nothing to do about the conference’s content,” Steve Eckley, the senior vice president of hotels for Amerimar Enterprises, the hotel’s parent company.
Another lie. Steve Eckley has been libeling Robert Spencer and me for the past week (e.g.,"at least two of your speakers [Geller and Spencer] have a history of enraging people to the point of violence").
Eckley said the hotel has received a plethora of discouraging phone calls and emails about authors Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer addressing the conference. The two are known for their strong views of the threat of the spread of Shariah throughout the U.S.
The group bristled at the hotel’s decision and said the move symbolizes Shariah’s threat to free speech, The Tennessean reported.
Really? If Eckley "received a plethora" (I am sure it was more like …two) let's send him a googol of encouraging phone calls and emails in support of free speech.
Work it.
Steve Eckley's phone number is 720-318-4238.
Americans must boycott these cowardly enterprises and raise their voices in protest.

The Truth Must be Told
Your contribution supports independent journalism
Please take a moment to consider this. Now, more than ever, people are reading Geller Report for news they won't get anywhere else. But advertising revenues have all but disappeared. Google Adsense is the online advertising monopoly and they have banned us. Social media giants like Facebook and Twitter have blocked and shadow-banned our accounts. But we won't put up a paywall. Because never has the free world needed independent journalism more.
Everyone who reads our reporting knows the Geller Report covers the news the media won't. We cannot do our ground-breaking report without your support. We must continue to report on the global jihad and the left's war on freedom. Our readers’ contributions make that possible.
Geller Report's independent, investigative journalism takes a lot of time, money and hard work to produce. But we do it because we believe our work is critical in the fight for freedom and because it is your fight, too.
