In a 1965 Playboy interview, Haley quoted King as saying that Malcolm X was "a demagogue" and "a danger to the black community." However, a Washington Post report has revealed that King never actually said these things.
The revelation that Haley fabricated King's criticisms is a reminder of the importance of critical thinking when consuming history. Just because something is written in a book or said by an expert does not mean it is true. It is important to always check the sources and to be aware of the biases of the author or speaker.
It is possible that Haley was biased against Malcolm X and that he wanted to make King look better by making Malcolm X look worse.
It is also important to remember that history is always being rewritten. As we learn more about the past, we may find that our understanding of it changes. This is why it is important to be open to new information and to be willing to challenge our assumptions.
