RETRACTION on Ward Churchill: Honolulu Star Bulletin Corrects; Churchill Did NOT Admit He Wasn't an American Indian

As noted in the original article on this below, the HSB is backing away from its original reportage that Ward Churchill clearly admitted he wasn't a native American Indian. They now say he was misquoted, and that the tape proves this.

Actually, he seems to have re-asserted his dubious claim of American Indian heritage:

Churchill went on to say that he is an associate member of the Keetoowah tribe and that associates are enrolled in the band after their genealogy has been vetted by the enrollment office. He said that he is less than one-quarter Indian, so he does not qualify to be a full member.

Umm, how the reporter on the HSB got this one wrong is beyond me. Perhaps there's some problem with the credentialling process at University of Hawaii functions.

Look, he's not an American Indian; at least no one has ever offered a shred of evidence that he is. But it does appear that the HSB's report of his admission of this was simply wrong.

So he didn't admit it, and that part of my posting on this matter has to be corrected.

Thanks to Chickpea. Also thanks to American Barbarian/Curbside Prophet, who tipped by both email and in the comments to the original piece.

Thanks for keeping the blogosphere honest, guys!
