The lessons to be learned from this event and its reporting by the Associated Press include that we should be cautious in accepting the reporting of the AP on historical events. This year marks the 210th anniversary of the Battle of Horseshoe Bend, which was located in what is now Alabama – then Mississippi Territory – during the War of 1812.

News that a 16-year-old Owasso student died on Feb. 8 quickly resulted in a narrative spread by activists throughout various media outlets: The teenager died as a result of a bathroom assault that was prompted by her self-identification as “nonbinary” amid a culture of violence created by Oklahoma’s “anti-LGBT” laws. But details from the resulting police investigation and medical examiner’s autopsy have demonstrated nearly every detail of that story was false. Just two parts of t...
