The program director of KMBZ radio in Kansas City says the station has no choice but to air commercials with racially biased and anti-Semitic claims from a write-in candidate for the U.S. Senate from Missouri.

The ads — which began on the station last week — are from Glenn Miller, a Springfield man who once ran the White Patriot Party. He's been described by the Southern Poverty Law Center in Montgomery, Ala., as a white supremacist and former paramilitary organizer.

2. White supremacy on the airwaves
ELLEN FUTTERMAN


While reporting on an upcoming series of articles for the Light, I ran across a man from Aurora, Mo. by the name of Glenn Miller who is running as a write-in candidate for U.S. Senate.

Unlike the famous Jewish bandleader, this Glenn Miller, whose full name is Frazier Glenn Miller, described himself as a "white separatist." In a phone interview last week, he told me that he is running to "expose the Jewish genocide against the white Gentile race."

On his website, www.whty.org, Miller blames the Jews for taking over the government and controlling the media. Miller, 69, also is involved in a publication called the Aryan Alternative, which is filled with bigoted and anti-Semitic ideology as it advocates that white people preserve the existence of their race against those who want to destroy it (specifically Jews and minorities).

Last week, Miller began running 60-second advertisements on three Springfield, Mo. radio stations to tout his candidacy. One spot starts with him chastising white men, calling them "cowards" for allowing Jews to take over "our government, our banks and our media." That's followed by a description of how "tens of thousand of foreign mud people" have invaded America and "taken our jobs and our women," and ends with Miller urging "white men to unite, join together and take our country back" by voting for him for U.S Senate.

6. A write-in candidate?
I thought they only had to air ads from candidates who were actually on the ballot (or not run any ads for the specific race in question).

But then, all a would-be Father Coughlin has to do is get on the ballot as a minor candidate, and it's Two Minutes Hate, here we come. :scared:

9. Must be a Missouri thing
I thought anybody could be a "write-in candidate".

So I could file as a write-in candidate for some statewide office and run ads calling teabaggers "Nazis"?

10. KMBZ 980 AM is typically a platform for the GOP to spew their bile
The flagship of hate radio in Kansas City.

"Has no choice..." bull shit! Glen Miller is a no legitimate candidate! He is a con man and the whole thing is a con on the public.


Congrats to local fear mongers Shannin and Parks and Darla Jaye for selling all the ad space!

12. Darla is vile
I was listening to her one night and she was going off on the poor who can't afford to buy a house and said they are the reason for the foreclosure crisis. Then she broke for a commercial and an ad promoting a mortgage for anyone was aired! So I called and asked the screener if Darla listened to the ads on her own show. I didn't get on the air so I emailed her. And of course she did not reply.

i've heard the ads online. They don't even attempt to hide anything or be subtle.
