Business

By Bradley R. Smith ∙ May 1, 1995

Last updated on

I’m in roughly the same situation I was this time last month, but I have something of a grasp on it. I’ve simplified Smith’s Report so that I can finish it in three working sessions rather than, as in the past, 10 sessions and oftentimes more.

I’ve cleared my desk of several projects I was contemplating trying to do and am increasingly focusing on the book manuscript. I still have about 90 days before everything starts to implode with my creditors. In May I’m going to do what I have to do to stay ahead of the pack.

At the same time, I have a new concept for the Campus Project, one that I think I can use to lever the various mainstream First Amendment organizations to stop evading us—which to date they have been very successful in doing. I think I have an idea for them that they are not going to be able to refuse. It’s very straight forward, less expensive than buying advertising space, and simple to implement. I don’t see why, if there is not some fresh, unexpected catastrophe in the meantime, I won’t be able to take a run at it early in the fall.

Best,

Bradley

  • Bradley R. Smith

    Bradley R. Smith was born in Los Angeles on February 18, 1930. At 18 he joined the army and in 1951 served with the infantry in Korea where he was twice wounded. After three decades of a variety of professional activities, it suddenly hit him: In 1979 he read a leaflet by Professor Robert Faurisson, "The Problem of the Gas Chambers." Then, Arthur Butz’s The Hoax of the Twentieth Century did it for him. He understood from the beginning that he would address the censorship, the suppression of independent thought, the taboo against publishing and debating revisionist arguments—not the arguments themselves. That has remained his position. In 1989, Smith founded Committee for Open Debate on the Holocaust (CODOH) dedicated to defending free speech and free inquiry into the Holocaust question. He handed over CODOH's helm in late 2014. He passed away on his 86th birthday, February 18, 2016. Read a series of obituaries here.

    As a regular reader of Smith's Report, you probably have a few questions you’d like to ask me.

Now that this issue of SR is numbered…

    This expanded issue of the Journal coincides with the sixtieth anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack.
