Ingrid Zundel to speak via telephone on Current Issues Broadcasts
I have been asked to give an introduction to the Zundel Case via
telephone on a popular Arab television show. The show itself will be
two hours long - a first for this particular medium. I am
particularly happy to do this for a cross-cultural media outlet since
I have preached for years that Holocaust Revisionism needs to get out
of its "European-only intellectual ghetto" and show how it is highly
relevant to what happens in the Middle East.
Here are the specifics of this show, along with a description sent to
me by a friend:
Current Issues Broadcasts live on Cox Cable System Channel 5 in
Louisiana as well as live on the Internet every Thursday evening from
8-10 PM Central Standard Time.
Host: Hesham Tillawi, Ph.D.
Website: www.currentissues.tv_ (http://www.currentissues.tv/)
Date for the Zundel Show: August 18, 2005 - 8 p.m. Central Standard Time
Number for call-in guests: 1-337-232-4434 ext 207. (An answering
service will come on, dial in the extension, 207, and Current Issues
will pick up.)

Here is a description of this Public Access/Internet television show:
[START]
The program is an Internet Television program formatted around an
interview, so it can be watched LIVE from anywhere in the world. It
is also broadcast locally in Louisiana and northern Florida. There
are currently great efforts being put forward to get this program on
more Public Access stations. We just heard from a Canadian yesterday
that the show had been broadcast in Vancouver BC on CPAC (See below
letter).
You asked about the effectiveness of having a television program in
which the host speaks with his guests over the telephone. It is too
early to know for certain how effective it will be, but I can tell
you that [Dr. Heshaw Tillawi's] audience is quickly growing and if
the CPAC broadcast is any indication, it seems to be growing
internationally.
As you know, if you gather together impressive guests and offer the
public topics the mainstream media won't touch, as Dr. Tillawi has
done, you are bound to get a following.
Tillawi interviewed Paul Findley last week, will interview Michael
Collins Piper and James Ennes this week, you and others in respect to
Ernst Zundel [on August 18] , Mordechai Vanunu on August 25, and
Kevin MacDonald on September 1, 2005.
Traffic to the Current Issues internet site has boomed lately.
One thing Tillawi does do to enhance the "visual" experience during
the program is to flash pictures of his guests on the screen. This
seems to work quite well at present. No doubt he'd like to be able to
afford to have guests "appear" on his program, but that just isn't
feasible at this time. Perhaps one day.
All in all, I think the show has merit and a future. Of course DR.
Tillawi has one definite advantage, he's Arab and thus can't be so
easily labeled an "anti-Semite," and/or racist like others.
The show is two hours long, but is split in two so that he can have
two guests/two topics. Yours will be at 8:00 PM to 9:00 PM CST. After
the Zundel segment his guest will be Cindy Sheehan who has developed
a very large following and has received much mainstream news
coverage. I think this is great, because her friends and allies,
people not traditionally associated with the right, will then become
familiar with Ernst and what has happened to him.
