Bad faith, blackmail and a troubled TV evangelist

A drug addict's allegations of gay sex sessions with the founder of
the world's largest televangelist group has sparked a furious
response, reports Andrew Gumbel
14 September 2004
The time was the autumn of 1996, the scene a cabin in the San
Bernardino mountains near Los Angeles. The cabin was owned by the
Trinity Broadcasting Network, the world's largest televangelist
organisation with outlets on thousands of satellite, cable and
terrestrial channels around the world. That much we know.
According to Lonnie Ford, an admittedly troubled sometime drug addict
who worked for the station, it was also the site of an inappropriate -
and potentially scandalous - sexual encounter between himself and
TBN's president and founder, Paul Crouch.
