Yes, this website does allow you to post fake news. I simply turned the floodlights on and shed truth to the subject.Gotta do your homework before posting.Says he came into the US on a tourist visa to work. No-no.
No, it says nothing like that. It says French citizens can simply apply for an ESTA. Only if that application is denied do you need the option to apply for a tourist visa. There's no indication the ESTA was denied.
It's no secret that the historian was scheduled to deliver an academic lecture. It's part of the selling point for their registration process. They make that information very public.
Mr. Rousso said he was interrogated by Customs and Border Protection officers who told him that he was violating immigration law by using a tourist visa to enter the country to attend the academic conference. He said that at first they denied him entry to the United States, and told him he would be put on the next available flight to Paris.
The issue, Mr. Rousso said, appeared to be an honorarium of $2,000 that he was being paid to participate in the conference. Such payments are allowed for academics visiting the United States, but Mr. Rousso and those involved in securing his release said the customs agents appeared not to realize that at first.

Fuck you. I ain't required to go find other links for minutiae that you might bring up thinking you have a point. I came with a link, I posted it, and no it does NOT say anything like what you indicated. PERIOD.
Furthermore your own post proves you wrong anyway. An honorarium is not "wages". Nor is there any proscription on attending a conference --- which is also not "work" ---- on a tourist visa.
Your own post.
