The Rocky Mountain News series on Ward Churchill started up again today. Our story picks up with the News presenting compelling evidence that the academic moonbat made up a tale, or tales , claiming the US Army, via blankets infected with the small pox virus, purposely tried to kill off Native Americans in what is now North Dakota.
Churchill does have" sources" for his research. One of the those sources contacted by the Rocky Mountain News, had this to say:
"My own view is Churchill probably just wanted to have something more to holler about," said the UCLA professor, Russell Thornton.
"I think it's just out-and-out fabrication. It depends on how you want to look at it, but in one sense, it's just making up of data, and that kind of thing shouldn't be tolerated in scholarship or science."
Thornton, the News points out, actually is a Native American. Ward's "Indian" heritage will be covered, or shall I say, uncovered, later this week.
