hills and valleys surrounding Wounded Knee, forcing the teams of Indian guards and warriors who escorted new arrivals and newsmen in Wounded Knee to take longer routes. A four-mile hike across rolling plains soon changed to a hearty 14-mile hike up and down steep hills and valleys covered with ice.
The FBI and federal marshals successfully prevented almost all newsmen from entering Wounded Knee. Newspapermen from large papers and journalists told at gunpoint that they would be shot if they attempted to enter Wounded Knee.
As a result, little news came from inside Wounded Knee, and reporters were forced to press releases from the offices of the BIA (BA), the FBI, U.S. marshals and Wilson.
This resulted in a curious seasewing of reports stating that the situation inside was bad, and he told them to proceed, then again that 'an agreement had been reached in principle', then back again to a tense situation. The effect was to make him knew what was going on in Wounded Knee.
Several large AIM caravans turned around once they learned that a "settlement" had been reached. In addition, reports that caravans of women and children were leaving the hamlet were erroneous.

The Indians inside are not militant young males. The populace is a microcosm of society, and many Indian chiefs, who stoutly disapprove of AIM's tactics, have led war parties inside for the sake of Indian unity.
There are no newspapers available within a 90-mile radius of Wounded Knee, and radio reports come seldom, if at all. Thus, anyone planning to enter Wounded Knee must be prepared to face what would be when he exited from the woods into the small hamlet, which consists of the approximately six buildings of the Sacred Heart Mission, built stop a mass grave of 90 men and 200 women and children on December 18, 1980. Cavalry on Dec. 28, 1980.
Most if not all the occupants of Wounded Knee are members of the Native American Church and profess to have no interest in Christianity.
The church, therefore, has been converted into the main building. The basement serves as a dining room, the main kitchen and the steeple as a sniping and observation post.
In front of the church is a transit that is

WOUNDED KNEE, S.D. (AP) - While federal police mobilized to seal off this tiny hamlet on Monday, Indians and the handful of whites in the occupation force relaxed and talked of their plans to establish a sovereign nation.
American Indian Movement (AIM) leaders told about 100 of their followers at a noon meeting Monday of the plan to weave the system into the village they've occupied since Fab. 27.
"You may not approve of this action".
But we must have some type of government.
He said that the outposts would become customs offices and that as far as he was concerned their nation was already at war with the United States.
The remark brought cheers.
