except that in this case, the way it's used here is much older than the one that anon up there is thinking of. Actually, "White-washing" a character as in "washing out the color/casting them as white" is a really jarring tabloid sort of language, and clearly more modern than the idea of "whitewashing" as in "washing out blood-/moral stains".

Actually, afaik the original meaning of whitewashing didn't come from washing out fabric, but from painting walls white. Whitewash was the material they used to paint walls, so whitewashing is covering up the dirt/hiding the flaws.
Which makes the most sense, imo.
