I will say that I know a story about a MAJOR "conservative" reporter who did a hit piece on Dollar and others and he deliberately and grossly lied about the, editing video footage which I myself saw to slander these men and women. I'll be happy to provide details in private. He was sued and had to settle for a massive amount, something reporters rarely do. So I am skeptical about any info put out by the drive-bys on televangelists and just as skeptical when Freepers are quick to insist that they know who does, and does not, have the anointing.
I would venture to say that a prosperity gospel is just plain baloney. You really have to stretch the Bible badly to get any apparent basis for it, and spirits not from God that do unbiblical things are very rife in the world.
Still, he must have gotten QUITE a smear job outside of the prosperity gospel problem if he, as a public figure, won a libel suit.
