Biased Liberty Lobby Show Stopped by ADL Intervention
NEW YORK (JTA)—Liber-
ty Lobby, a far-right propa-
ganda apparatus charged by
the Anti-Defamation League
of Bnai Brith with using its
daily radio program to ped-
dle anti-Semitism, has said
that as a result of ADL's dis-
closures, Mutual Broadcast-
ing System will no longer
make the five-minute show
available to its 600 affiliates.
"A victory for the ADL"
was the way Liberty Lobby's
December report to contribu-
tors described Mutual's ter-
mination of its eight-month-
old distribution contract with
the Washington-based group.
The cancellation came on
the heels of the ADL's ex-
posure of the anti-Semitic
content of the 'This Is Li-
berty Lobby" programs, of
Liberty Lobby materials, and
the long-time anti-Jewish ac-
tivities of Willis A. Carto, its
founder.
According to Seymour
Graubard, ADL's national
chairman, about 90 of the
Mutual Stations have been
airing the program around
the country. He added, how-
ever, that the Mutual action
cuts the number of This Is
Liberty Lobby' outlets al-
most in half, but some 100
independent stations still car-
ry the program."
Michigan radio stations af-
filiated with the Mutual
Broadcasting System which
will no longer carry "This
Is Liberty Lobby" include
WLEN-FM, Adrian; WCER,
Charlotte; WHTC, Holland;
WHTC-FM, Holland; and
WNIL, Niles. An independent
Michigan station still carry-
ing the program is WLDM-
FM, Detroit.
The ADL survey of the
broadcasts, made public last
July by Lawrence Peirez,
chairman of the ADL's civil
rights committee, 'and John
L. Goldwater, chairman of
its fact finding committee,
identified Carto as "an out-
spoken anti-Semite" and "the
unpublicized force" behind
"This Is Liberty Lobby."
Israel, Ireland
Establish Ties
JERUSALEM (JTA) — Is-
rael and the Republic of Ire-

Noting that "This Is Liber-
ty Lobby" commentator Bob
Bartell has charged Amer-
ican Jews with being disloy-
al using terminology "scraped
from the garbage cans of
professional hatemongers,"
the ADL also questioned
whether the managements
and licensees of the pro-
gram's radio outlets were
"ignorant of its contents or
uncaring about their role in
helping peddle bigotry."
• Graubard pointed out that
"even in its report of the
cancellation, Libery Lobby
again libeled American Jews
and perpetuated the false-
hood that Jews control the
news media." He said that
after ADL's survey of "This
Is Liberty Lobby" was made
public, Liberty Lobby had es-
calated its anti-Semitic cam-
paign with a promotion and
distribution of two notorious
hate tracts—"The Myth of
the Six Million," a 119-page
anonymous paperback, and
a reprint of a 27-year-old
fraudulent anti-Semitic pam-
phlet, "The ADL and Its Use
in the Communist Offensive,"
written by Robert H. Wil-
liams, an anti-Jewish propa.._
gandist in the 1940s and
1950s.
The ADL survey disclosed
that the Liberty Lobby broad-
casts regularly offered a free
copy of "America First" as
a bonus for subscriptions to
"the' equally anti - Semitic
monthly, 'Liberty Letter'."
The July issue of "Liberty
Letter," in a column and ad
on "The Myth of the Six
Million," described the book
as containing "facts" alleg-
edly proving that Hitler's
decimation of the Jewish peo-
ple during the Holocaust "is
pure poppycock."

He insists on Maxim®.
Maxim tastes like fresh
perked coffee because
Maxim starts with fresh

freeze-dried into big dark

Maxim. Fantastic flavor
