Weston, Mary Ann. Native Americans in the news: images of Indians in the twentieth century press. Westport, CT: Greenwood P, 1996. Pages 120-121.
Annotation:
Brief mention. The heavy coverage of the Ku Klux Klan routing of January 18, 1958 (front page of the New York Times, Chicago Tribune, and Chicago Daily News; also covered in Christian Science Monitor, Life, Newsweek, and U.S. News and World Report) favored the event over the situation and catered to the image of Indians as warlike. Notes the recurrence, in media coverage of the routing, of phrases such as “on the warpath,” “Redskins stirred up,” “Natives are restless,” and “warwhooping.”
