Pulitzer Prize for Holocaust Denier

Foreign Press Foundation - Henk Ruyssenaars | 09.05.2006 17:20 | Analysis | Anti-racism | World

A Pulitzer Prize winner made the most disgusting remark ever concerning journalism: "In agreement with the New York Times and the Soviet authorities, his official dispatches always reflect the official opinion of the Soviet region and not his own." - NYT's Moscow correspondent and Pulitzer Prize winner Duranty.

FPF - May 9th 2006 - Today a week ago, finally the journalist/researcher who wrote about the Holocaust that took the life of up to ten million people got his commemoration plaque in bronze too. Most people will never visit the New York Times building in New York, but there another commemoration plaque can be seen in the Prize gallery: for their journalist/correspondent who got a Pulitzer Prize for his denial of the Holocaust.

Last Tuesday the University of Wales, Aberystwyth (UK) honored the life and work of the outstanding journalist/researcher Gareth Jones, the man who dared to write about the immense suffering and death of the millions of human beings. He was one of the very few to report on this enormous massacre, a genocidal Holocaust in the beginning of the Thirties, which is believed to have caused up to 10 million deaths. But now - in 2006 - a bronze plaque was unveiled in the Old College Quad of his old university, by his niece Dr. Margaret Siriol Colley.

OFFICIAL RECORDS DECLASSIFIED

Dr. Colley has dedicated many years to studying his life and work, and is the author of 'A Manchukuo Incident' which investigates the political intrigue surrounding his murder by Chinese bandits in 1935. Official records declassified since the publishing of that book by the respective secret services - MI6-KGB-CIA etc. - show that Gareth's killers probably were acting on behalf of the Soviet secret service NKVD/GPU, as it was called then. The Soviet Union at that time was run by the same group which had been ordering and perpetrating the earlier by Gareth described Holocaust in the Ukraine, where it is known as the Holodomor.*

What nobody was allowed to see or write about, Gareth Jones went to see for himself, with the advantage of knowing the Russian language. In his 'Letter from America' for the BBC, Alistair Cook on Monday, 23 June, 2003, in his broadcast 'The maddest and most criminal of tyrants' said - when he as a seasoned reporter heard the horrible but 'underreported' story about this Holocaust for the first time (and he was British):

''1933 was the first year of Stalin's triumph in enforcing his collectivist plan. In shorter words - in that year 4.2 million Ukrainians starved to death, another 1.7 millions were driven away to outdoor threadbare camps and left for the perishing winter to kill them off.

NO WESTERN REPORTER THAT I'VE HEARD ABOUT MANAGED TO GET A WORD ABOUT THE UKRAINE THROUGH TO HIS/HER PAPER.

We did read of public trials of journalists, party officials, intellectuals, who were said to have conspired against the party and some of them certainly had but all of them were - as the polite word had it - liquidated. In London Mr Bernard Shaw commented: "Stalin was quite right, he was surrounded by enemies." [Url.:  http://tinyurl.com/jzrqx]

[ ] "Gareth reported the tragic plight of the starving peasants. He shared his food with them and even slept with them in their primitive cottages. “There is no bread. We are dying!” was the cry. His press release was printed in many papers including the New York Evening Post and the Manchester Guardian.

THE PULITZER PRIZE WINNER, WALTER DURANTY DENIED THE PEASANTS WERE DYING OF HUNGER AND IMPLIED IN THE INFAMOUS NEW YORK TIMES ARTICLE OF MARCH 31ST THAT GARETH WAS LYING.

Gareth was further reviled by the Soviet-sympathetic foreign correspondents in Moscow. Gareth wrote a letter to the New York Times published on May 13th in which stated that he stood by every word he had said about the terrible famine. Except for Malcolm Muggeridge, Gareth was one of the few journalists to report on the tragedy. Gareth bravely published at least 20 articles in April alone in the Western Mail, in the Daily Express and other newspapers." - And he was most probably killed by the same group he put the spotlight on concerning this gruesome Holocaust that the world was not supposed to know about.

DOCUMENTING THE HOLOCAUST DENIAL: THE NEW YORK TIMES SMOKING GUN*

''In the 1930s, the U.S. news media had a great influence on how intelligence officials, policy makers and the general public viewed the Soviet Union. One such journalist who was able to sway public opinion through his writings was New York Times correspondent Walter Duranty, who not only disregarded the famine in his dispatches, but also called other journalists outright liars for reporting about Ukraine’s Famine-Genocide.

With the collapse of the Soviet Union, many U.S. documents have been declassified. Click Here to view a copy of an official memorandum - [ http://ucca.org/famine/gordondispatch.html] - sent by George A. Gordon, Charge d’Affairs, ad interim in Berlin, Germany to the U.S. Secretary of State in June 1931.

The memorandum addresses a conversation a U.S. Embassy employee had with Walter Duranty, the Moscow correspondent of the New York Times. Upon reading the document, one can clearly conclude that Walter Duranty was merely a mouthpiece for the Soviet Regime. This is evident when he states, “in agreement with the New York Times and the Soviet authorities’ his official dispatches always reflect the official opinion of the Soviet region and not his own."

This document not only brings to light Duranty’s shortcomings in his coverage of the Soviet Union during the 1930s, but also raises the question as to his journalistic integrity, for which in 1932, he was awarded the prestigious Pulitzer Prize. [end quote]

''The New York Times Missed the Wrong Missed Story'' was the comment by William L. Anderson - [Url.:  http://tinyurl.com/s9ddr] in his story about The New York Times and it's owners, denying the Holocausts: "The only problem is that Duranty wrote nothing but lies, and it is even more apparent that the leadership of the Times had been informed on numerous occasions that Duranty was painting a false picture of Stalin’s actions.

While Duranty told the readers of the Times that the Five Year Plan was successfully transforming production in the U.S.S.R. and giving the citizens of that nation an ever-improving standard of living, the opposite was actually true." [end quote]

In an open letter that speaks for itself the PNAC people at The New York Times are asked to revoke Duranty's Pulitzer Prize for denying the existence of this Holocaust:

Dr Margaret Siriol Colley,
Bramcote,
Notts,
UK.

24th June 2003
To The Pulitzer Prize Committee,
Columbia University,
709 Journalism Building,
2950 Broadway
New York, NY, USA, 10027.

An open letter to the committee deliberating on the revocation of the 1932 Pulitzer Prize for Correspondence from Walter Duranty.

Dear Sirs,

Re. Duranty & Gareth Richard Vaughan Jones (1905 -1935)

This is a personal plea to revoke the 1932 Pulitzer Prize from the infamous journalist, Walter Duranty, who libelously damned the truthful reporting of my uncle, Gareth Jones.

On March 31st 1933, Gareth Jones, a young Welsh journalist, returning from an investigative tour of Soviet Ukraine, who then dared to publicly expose the severity of 1933 Soviet famine, was the prime recipient of Walter Duranty’s villainous New York Times diatribe, ‘Russians Hungry but not Starving’. By vaunting his then esteemed journalistic reputation through the integrity of The New York Times to defame Gareth Jones, Duranty brutally portrayed Jones of being both a scaremonger and a liar. Duranty further stated, “There is no actual starvation or death from starvation, but there is widespread mortality from disease due to malnutrition”. - [ ] The rest of the open letter can be read here - Url.:  http://www.garethjones.org/overview/duranty.htm

The perpetrators were spoken about in a Speech given by Peter Borisow at the Chicagoland Ukrainians Commemoration Events for the 70th Anniversary of the Ukrainian Genocide Famine of 1932-1933:''We remember how they turned the entire country of Ukraine into a huge, mind boggling, indescribable concentration camp, policed by soldiers from Moscow, as cold blooded and sadistic as the worst of the Nazis. We remember the minions, the Kaganoviches* and the Molotovs, who ran this hell on earth for their masters in Moscow. We remember how they too sneered and lied to cover their master's treachery. - Url.:  http://tinyurl.com/pb2aa

So now the wondering starts for many - as for my friend the Welshman whom I asked too, who was not sure he ever had heard the name of the most famous Welsh journalist Gareth Jones, but who like 99.99% of the people absolutely never had heard of the Holocaust in the Ukraine. The biggest (censored) 'search machine on Internet - Google - even shows one item on this Holocaust: the Red Cross Museum in Switzerland: The Great Famine-Genocide in Soviet Ukraine, 1932-1933 (Holodomor) - Url.:  http://tinyurl.com/nler5

And when we don't know the background nor facts, it's understandable why the Pulitzer group awarded Walter Duranty who denied this Holocaust with a Pulitzer Prize for his non-reporting.

They, the Duranty's of this world are the eternal shame of humanity. Their victims may be dead, but even in their graves they are not silenced.

The perpetrators guilt will last as long as their victims are dead.
