I don't think anything highlights the glaring absence of Native Americans in the upper management of the Asheville Citizen-Times than this load of fertilizer they published April 5. In fact it shows a lack of Native Americans in the staff period (or at least turning a deaf ear to any they do have on staff).
A call to the Eastern Band of Cherokee or to the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma or the United Keetoowah Band of Cherokee in Oklahoma would've told the Citizen-Times that there is no such tribe as the Western Band Cherokee of Missouri, and that this is just a typical snake oil and medicine show.
George Benge, the last Native American executive editor at the Citizen-Times would've never allowed this garbage to be published, at least not without calling BS on it.
