It's not a network tv show - people reading the book can actually think, and have the ability to discern the difference between fact and fiction.

Or if it's another "literary device" that makes Indians look corrupt and venal. There were no large-scale Indian casinos 26 years ago, so no membership battles over casino payments. That much is certainly false. P.S. See http://www.bluecorncomics.com/scalped.htm for more thoughts on SCALPED's portrayal of Indians.
