There is the ideal of free speech, and then there is reality: censorship, persecution, and prosecution of dissidents.

In his “Plain Talk” perspective Thursday about the Holocaust and Revisionism, Professor Peter Hayes charges me with manipulation, deception, distortion, ignorance, intimidation, nastiness, dishonesty, duplicity, maliciousness, tastelessness, the browbeating of academics like himself, conspiracy mongering, promoting implausibilities and spreading disinformation. Hayes evaded the challenge of addressing content, however, so I suppose you could say he…

When this newspaper printed Bradley Smith's advertisment last Thursday (“The Holocaust Story,” April 4, page 11), it fanned not one, but two, gathering controversies on campus. The first concerns our knowledge about the Nazi massacre of the Jews of Europe. The second centers on the policies of The Daily itself. Surprisingly perhaps, the first issue…

A lot of complaints to The Daily in the past week have not been about misquotes, errors or bad headlines, amazingly enough. Most regarded a full-page advertisement from Bradley R Smith that ran April 4, advocating open debate and free speech on the Holocaust. Others were about Bill Colwell's perspective Monday, which insisted that importing…

The ADL trained their sites on another Holocaust outrage, claiming that a proposed New York art exhibit would trivialize the Holocaust.

Twenty years ago Smith discovered revisionist theory regarding the Holocaust story. Nineteen years, eleven months and about 28 days ago he discovered that holocaust revisionism was taboo. After a year or two Smith lost interest in following the ins and outs of revisionist scholarship itself, but he remained fascinated with the ferocity with which the…

Dr. Fredrick Töben of Australia's Adelaide Institute was recently given a 10 month prison sentence in Germany. The Institute rejects the claim that homicidal gas chambers were used at Auschwitz-Birkenau. In April, while in Germany, Töben met with prosecutor Heiko Klein and raised questions about the Holocaust. During the discussion Töben was arrested and sent…
