Lac du Flambeau bans sale of newspaper
Posted on Indianz.com this morning:
Lac du Flambeau Band bans sale of newspaper Friday, July 15, 2005 The Lac du Flambeau Band of Lake Superior Chippewa has banned the sale of a local newspaper on its Wisconsin reservation. Tribal leaders are upset over the way The Lakeland Times is covering the tribe. The tribe pulled its advertising from the paper. Some tribal members, however, have been sources for the stories in question. They are selling the paper on the reservation. Man, this stinks. When is freedom of the press going to be a real right in Indian Country? Tribal Councils and governments in general have WAY TOO MUCH POWER!! Don't these government officials realize that without bona fide journalists reporting on tribal issues that the only way for tribal members to get information is through rumor? And we all know how accurate rez rumors are.
