2: Professor DEBORAH LIPSTADT examines a chilling new trend in historical revisionism: disavowing the deaths of six million Jews in Nazi concentration camps. Her book, "Denying the Holocaust" (Free Press) traces the rise of this reversal: the change in influence of these practitioners as isolated pamphleteers and cranks forty years ago to the point today, where a poll found one fifth of the American public think it seems "possible" that the Holocaust never happened. (REBROADCAST FROM 7/14/93).
