Edward Ervin, production manager of radio station WBNX, yesterday denied that his station had removed a program to make room for the broadcast of Nazi propaganda. Charges to this effect were made early this week by Theodore Nathan, of the magazine Debate.
Ervin claimed Nathan raised the issue of the discontinuance of the Debate program because of a “desire for publicity,” which he claimed resulted in a “great injustice to this station and to the Jewish institutions it seeks to support.”
One of the programs succeeding the Debate period is taken up by the Colek Ensemble, a German group.
