Revisionist Voice to Return to Regional & National Talk Radio

Talk radio is bigger than ever. It plays a more significant role in public discourse than anyone imagined it would only a few short years ago. I used to do a lot of radio myself. My “media project” was the first revisionist activist work that reached broad regional and even national audiences in America. By 1992, however, it was superseded by the even more influential Campus Project, when my workload became such that I had to drop radio. Now the Campus Project is being integrated into the activities of the CODOH Web site.

Radio is too important to leave entirely in the hands of others. A revisionist voice on the air is sorely needed. It’s about to happen. Sometimes the time is right, sometimes wrong. This time the time is right.

In early April I received a telephone call from my friend Tom Reveille. We chatted about this and radio came up in the conversation. I was reminded once again what a tremendous radio voice Tom has. Then I recalled how he is a strong revisionist and even more important how, when it comes to free speech, he is an absolutist and — WHAM! –Smith got another of his bright ideas. Why not cut a deal with Tom where I would solicit radio interviews and he would do them?

At the same time, I was second-tracking the problems of time, money and organization. A year ago I couldn’t have managed it. But now I am on-line. I can solicit radio interviews by e-mail. I have a tremendous fax capability. I can solicit interviews by broadcast fax. All I need is e-mail lists of talk show producers, lists of talk show fax numbers, and I can send a hundred or two hundred solicitations at one time by either e-mail or fax by mashing a few numbers and letters on my keyboard. No fuss, no muss. Very little office work.

Because my way of doing things is to jump into them without a lot of reflection, depending on how much heat 1 feel around the heart, I cut a deal with Tom right then and there. We would decide on story hooks as a team. I would put the package together and solicit the interview's. He would do the talking. Together we would see to it that a strong revisionist voice, based on an absolute belief in intellectual freedom, would once again be a presence on radio and, what always follows, television. Whoopee!

This time the talk will have something of a new emphasis. When I did radio, particularly at the beginning,

I focused on the gas chamber stories and free press issues. I stayed away from Zionism and Israel and particularly Judaism, though all three were always there in the background. That’s the nature of this particular beast.

This time around we’re going to focus on precisely what I worked so hard, on principle, to stay away from: how the Holocaust story is controlled and exploited by Zionists and Zionist fellow-travelers; on the spin media puts on the controversy to prop up Zionist theory and Israeli government policies toward the Palestinians, Muslims, and the Arab world generally. We will discuss how Zionists use “Holocaust guilt” to shame and literally blackmail non-Arab regimes.

These issues have not been the focus of any previous revisionist talk show “tour.” It will be this time. We won’t forget the gas chamber stories, but we're going to focus on the political and cultural exploitation of the stories, not their historicity.

But wait a minute! Who is Tom Reveille? I don’t have a lot of space left in this issue of SR. Suffice it to say that he has taught at Amherst College, worked in the NY Shakespeare Festival and at Yale Drama School, has hosted his own radio show on three FCC stations during the 1980s, guested eight times (!!!) on the Morton Downey Show, and produced for Downey the only TV program ever devoted to the Federal Reserve. I did the Morton Downey Show myself one measly time and before the end he threw me off it, so you can imagine how much respect I have for Tom Reveille.

Meanwhile, before we have had time to send out our first solicitation to talk show producers, Tom has completed two interviews, one on WFTL radio in Miami with Nick Lawrence, and the second as a call-in over WMBC cable in Silver Spring, Maryland, which is in the Washington D.C. market area.

Next month we’ll give you background on these two interviews and whatever new ones we will have done in the meantime.
