Arab Propaganda Over Airways and an Anti-Zionist's Worries

An Exclusive American Jewish Press Feature

By RINNA GROSSMAN
Prominent Israeli Newspaperwoman

Last week, a small article ap- very upset because not enough

peared at the bottom of one of
the lesser pages of the New York
Times to the effect that Alfred
Lilienthal, author of "What
Price Israel" and a prominent
member of the American Coun-
cil for Judaism, had asked the
Federal Communications Com-
mission to investigate what he
called "an information blackout"
on radio and television regard-
ing Zionism and anti-Zionism.
Mr. Lilienthal was, it appeared,

least if a highly sensational
story in the P. M. papers with-
ers and fades by dawn. It
doesn't matter if all the props
are knocked out from under
the story or how many official
denials are issued in connee-
tion with it. What really
counts is to get on to Page
One in big black type and stay
there till the next edition. The
Arabs have a point here. No-
body, editors included, is ever
interested in refutations. So a
denial is politely printed, but
it is given a very small head-
line and relegated to the back
of the paper, often stuck be-
tween two unexciting ads.

interesting items to Mr. Lilien-
thal so that he could relax and
stop worrying. There is no black-
out on anti-Zionist propaganda
in the U.S., Mr. Lilienthal, and I
call upon Ripley as my witness!
