Never Happened

Holocaust denial is in the news again.
Firstly, the one I prepared earlier, Hamas and the text books.
Secondly, Facebook’s policy of allowing free speech for Holocaust denial groups, arguably in contradiction to their policy of banning hate-speech.
Thirdly, the publication in the Spanish newspaper El Mundo, of a ‘major interview’ with David Irving, to balance the previous day’s interview with Avner Shalev, the chairman of Yad Vashem.

What’s this got to do with the BBC?
Don’t shout! A thread on fivelive……
Commenter “Cookie Cutter”on Harry’s place (2:39) says:

“a few years ago there was the “Iron Naz” incident[..] representation was made to BBC Management who saw the error of their ways and a whole slew of antisemitic posts were renewed with a supposed hot-line between BOD and BBC to alert the moderators. A BBC department head argued that it was free speech.
“If the moderators are the same today as there were then, then I happen to believe I know something about where the moderators are recruited from (based on the management of the moderating company) and these are not people sympathetic to Jewish and Israel issues, correction, not even neutral.[…] My guess is that the BBC moderators have turned-over staff since “Iron Naz” days and the current crew are taking complaints as mendacious. They can ban you if you complain too much.”
