Act Now: No Airtime for Killer AIDS Denialist

WBAI (the NYC Pacifica radio station) is putting AIDS denialist Gary Null back on the air. They plan to give him five days a week to spout misinformation like HIV is not the cause of AIDS and all AIDS treatments are poison.

Null aims to expand his lies about HIV not causing AIDS, and the marketing of his own products, to all the listener-sponsored Pacifica stations. No matter where you live, we need your help opposing this dangerous situation.

This is unacceptable:

• There is no valid debate on HIV as the cause of AIDS, just like there is no valid debate that the Holocaust occured.
• AIDS denialism kills people. Individuals are told to reject possible treatments and government leaders are encouraged to deny access to treatment.
• Arguing with denialists takes valuable time away from efforts fighting HIV/AIDS.
