I remember seeing this show, and it was one of my first exposures to the idea that there are people out there who honestly don't believe the establishment's Holocaust story. I'd known there were people who said it didn't happen, however at the time I believed the establishment's lie that these people were all racists, fools, fanatics and Neo-Nazis. Yet here was this very intelligent young Jewish scholar who certainly didn't appear to be any of those things, and yet here he was arguing against the Holocaust story. One thing I remember thinking at the time is how odd it was how Donahue was acting. He wouldn't let Cole complete a thought without interrupting him, to the point of greatly detracting from the show. I remember thinking "Thats weird. Why have him on the show if you're not going to let him speak?" Finally, if I recall correctly, Cole became exasperated and humorously asked Donahue in a biting retort if this is how he treated Marlo Thomas, and Donahue seized on that and quickly went to commercial. When the show came back, Cole's seat was empty, and Donahue explained that David was no longer on the show. I don't remember Bradley, or anyone else that was on the show for that matter, but I remember David. Looking back on it, its clear that Donahue had gotten nervous about his guest, as David was clearly very intelligent and articulate, and that he knew his facts; in short, he could not be written off as a racist, fool, fanatic or a neo-nazi. Donahue probably feared the ramifications to his career such a show could have among his Jewish media bosses, so he worked to block and interfere with Cole's arguements by literally interrupting him and obfuscating as much as he could. Donahue was a classic white-liberal coward, so this interpretation makes sense. Then with the comment about Marlo Donahue had his oppurtunity and had David removed from the show.
I'd like to definitely get ahold of a video of that show, as well. I'm sure its out there somewhere. Good luck with your search, and let us know if you find one. And welcome to the boards Holycaust!!
