EVANS
TALKS OF MY BEING "often interviewed on television or takes part in
discussion programs". Daß ich nicht
lache! Under the pressure
of the Board of Deputies of British Jews and other
traditional enemies of free speech, the BBC and other British
television and radio authorities no longer allow me to broadcast live
and only very rarely in recorded interviews. The South African Jewish
Board of Deputies admitted to the press having applied similar
pressure to the South African Broadcasting Company. Mr Adams no doubt
had his reasons for not inviting me to participate in the Evans
interview to provide balance. Similar Anti-Defamation
League pressure was applied in the United States in 1977
if not long before then to prevent U.S. Television producers from
allowing me to appear on live discussion programmes. When a Buenos
Aires television producer unwittingly allowed me to have a live
interview with top chat show host Maurizio Goldfarb in that city in
October 1991, he was dismissed on the following morning as a
punishment. I could go on.
