re: #236 Charles Johnson

From WIKI:

The lawsuit between Butterworth and GE led him to become politically active. He broadcast a radio program in Atlanta on which he opposed the NAACP convention and attacked blacks, non-Christians and Catholics. The show was cancelled after being on the air for only two weeks, and the resulting lawsuit he filed against the radio station ended unsuccessfully. Around 1961, the Georgia offshoot of the Ku Klux Klan, the National Knights of the Ku Klux Klan used recordings narrated by Butterworth to spread its pitch. Butterworth also organized the Defensive Legion of Registered Americans in 1962, and narrated a series of spoken voice recordings for the Christian Voters and Buyers League, promoting anti-Semitism, racism, and a boycott of Kosher products.

Damn, things really haven’t changed that much, have they?
