The censorship of Hunt & Keith-Hill's investigation

When we study the rise of the Nazis during the 1930s, we wonder open-mouthed as to how a gang of monsters could have brainwashed a civilised nation steeped in culture such a Germany.  It is a story so fantastic that, had it not happened, no one would believe that it could. 
    Hitler and his gangsters' first success was undoubtedly the manipulation of the media, followed closely by the widespread suppression of free speech, truth and justice.  Having succeeded in achieving these dark goals, and untroubled by enough good Germans standing up against them, they then began their evil agenda. 
    Over half a century later, here in Britain, it seems that the German nightmare has taught us little about our own need for freedom of speech, truth, and justice.  To the contrary, the British news media appears to covet its ability to steer the nation's agenda with shameless political bias and censorship, regardless of its destructive effect on the lives of innocent people.

    
Previously, I did not believe that witch-hunts and political censorship were part of the British psyche.  But having investigated the so-called British 'cash for questions' affair, and the way that a politically-driven newspaper aided by its apparatchiks  succeeded in brainwashing the people of Great Britain, stirring up bigotry to the point that the function of Britain's institutions was affected, I'm now satisfied that what happened in Germany could well have happened here. 
    The British media's reluctance to air the investigation by Malcolm Keith-Hill and myself can be illustrated by the events of Tuesday, 22 May 2001.  At 11.00am that morning, at Macclesfield County Court, Tatton's former Conservative MP, Neil Hamilton, was made bankrupt by Harrods owner Mohamed Fayed.  Outside in the street, I waited among a pack of journalists, accompanied by a colleague.
    When we arrived a few minutes earlier, a press pack had swarmed around us. But when they heard me explain how Neil Hamilton had been framed by corrupt journalists at The Guardian in league with Mohamed 'Al' Fayed, they literally turned their backs and walked away.  Then, a quarter of an hour or so later, just before Neil Hamilton and his wife emerged from the building, my friend and I unfurled a twelve-foot long banner bearing the legend:

Neil Hamilton gave a statement decrying the British legal system and declaring his continuing fight for justice.  Then, as he and his wife walked down the street towards their car, we followed close behind, bearing the banner atop in full view of the cameras (left).  The next day only one newspaper mentioned our presence, and only in passing at that.  None mentioned the banner bearing the website's address.
    Usefully, BBC1's Six O' Clock News broadcast a report of Hamilton's bankruptcy, which included a fleeting glimpse of the banner as the Hamiltons walked towards their car.  However, the reporter concerned did not report the banner, nor the launch of my website; nor my candidature for the Tatton constituency, nor the existence of an independent investigation supporting Hamilton's claims of innocence.  The BBC reporter in question had told me that our research was a matter for the BBC's "Panorama" documentary team.   But I had visited Panorama, and they had told me that it was "too political", and should be handled by the BBC's political documentary unit.  And when I had visited the political documentary unit, they had told me that they "didn't do programmes about newspapers".
    

The Hamiltons walk towards their car from court.  J B Hunt holds aloft a banner bearing his website address, but Britain's media continued its news blackout of his & Keith-Hill's investigation (videograb taken from BBC 6.00 News 22.05.01)

This censorship provides lucid proof of the way the BBC and other broadcasters have closed ranks with The Guardian and blacked out news of our investigation (contrary to the 1990 Broadcasting Act, which requires impartiality in the reporting of political controversies).  

British news organisations can react to the existence of www.Guardianlies.com in only one of two ways.  Either:

a) the British media will publicise the evidence that Malcolm Keith-Hill and I have collated showing that Neil Hamilton was framed by The Guardian in cahoots with Mohamed 'Al' Fayed

or

b) the British media will maintain its news blackout of our investigation

So far, British news organisations have chosen option b) revealing their complicity in the conspiracy of silence. 

I close with an invitation to journalists everywhere, whether British or foreign, to contact me for a briefing on the British media's news blackout of our investigation - a cover-up of a cover-up - that is so all-enveloping that it necessitated the creation of this website.

Yours sincerely,

Jonathan Boyd Hunt
