The editorial philosophy of Wambli Ho News is that resolution can only come to issues when all views are known.  In this way, truth can be found and understood.  To that end, Wambli Ho News is doing its best to objectively present all sides of the continuing Protection of Ceremonies issues through statements and responses submitted to us by legitimate Lakota and Cheyenne Leaders and people as well as by providing links to other related press articles on this Update webpage.

Despite internet and email attacks, threats, and harassment from a small handful of people as well as phone line tampering by persons unknown, Wambli Ho News remains strong in its commitment to continue coverage of these issues.
