Simon Pound: MP3 Audio Interview With David Irving

first broadcast 12 August 2004

Much controversy has been generated over the proposed visit to this country by historian David Irving. Irving made his reputation as biographer of Churchill. These days he is internationally reviled as a holocaust denier. The prospect of his arrival here has Jewish groups appalled and civil libertarians divided. For a variety of reasons, it looks like he won't be touching down in Wellington any time soon. On the line from Florida he told Simon Pound why we're not ready for his version of history.
