Associated Press Stealth-Edits Claim ‘White Colonists’ Scalped Native Americans
Kristina Wong 3 Jan 2024
The Associated Press, in an article on Wednesday, not only claimed conservatives were responsible for Harvard President Claudine Gay’s resignation after she was found to have plagiarized her academic work almost 50 times, but it also claimed that “white colonists” practiced scalping on Native Americans — a claim it stealth-edited later.
The article, when it first published, said that conservative activist Christopher Rufo, who had looked into Gay’s plagiarism, celebrated Gay’s resignation by posting on X, “SCALPED” — a term often colloquially used by journalists when their reporting leads to someone’s resignation or firing.
However, the AP wrote that Rufo used the word to insinuate that Gay was a “trophy of violence” and was “invoking a gruesome practice taken up by white colonists who sought to eradicate Native Americans.”

I've got a subscription to Newspapers.com, that has a lot of interesting 18th century early America accounts of colonist-Indian warfare.
Believe me, the opposite is true.

So, what if they did? Scalping was a common practice back then among many different peoples of many different nations.

I don't understand. Is the Associated Press denying that the "natives" scalped other natives, as well as the white settlers?
