If you're a valueable asset to the university the likelyhood of being sent on leave isn't very likely for saying merely something controversial. I mean take a look at noam chomsky, this guy has been bringing more negative attention on himself than Jones could ever hope for and MIT wouldn't dream of canning him.
Jones got canned not for being controversial.. but for being a conspiratorial loon and making baseless accusations. Making a fool of himself and the iniversity for keeping him on staff.
