London, Friday, Australian ABC television crew interviews David Irving at Westminster Court after the Toben Case hearing
on Oct 29. David Irving comments: A LETTER before action has now been sent to the otherwise admirable Jewish Chronicle for once again stating that David Irving is an active Holocaust denier.If these journalists keep swimming in their own lies, they may eventually drown in them. High Court action will follow if the warning is ignored. I have warned this newspaper on three previous occasions.
Incidentally, The Jewish Chronicle made no attempt to contact me, but
on Oct 28 at 12:48 pm a woman claiming to be from The Daily Mail phoned about the Celebrity Big Brother inivitation. David Irving invited on Celebrity Big Brother TV production company Endemol, which makes the reality show Celebrity Big Brother, was condemned this week for inviting Holocaust-denier David Irving to take part in the next series. Mr Irving states on his website that he received a “top secret provisional invitation” in September asking him to take part in series planned to start
on January 2. He was told last Friday that he had not made the final selection. He met producers for ninety minutes at a Kensington hotel
on October 7 and wrote on his website : “They seem very keen, pleased that I am so up front, open and uninhibited. Comes easily to me.” He also notes that his teenage daughter advised him against accepting, but he told her he was encouraged by the fact that “financially [the programme makers] have made a killing”. He said he was annoyed at the decision not to take him, saying “the fee would have been nice” wondering “who had put the ‘no’ stamp on it”.
Stephen Smith , director of the Beth Shalom Holocaust Centre in Nottingham, said: “Broadcast is fast becoming a spectacle of outrageous views that can bring harm to others. If the makers of Celebrity Big Brother even considered David Irving for their next broadcast, it demands a full explanation. “It is just as well they thought twice. David Irving has convictions for Holocaust denial in Austria and is well known to be an apologist for the Nazi regime.
He has no place on prime-time television.” A Big Brother spokesperson said Irving had not been “seriously considered” as a contestant. David Irving did not return the JC’s request for comment.
