Bigots Get Publicity
Today, the blatant bigot, the leader of a lunatic fringe, ant the 
hate-monger, each with his tiny entourage, find it is relatively easy
to attract publicity. Newspapers give space to the virulent activities
of those agitators on the grounds that they are newsworthy. T.V. producers
and Radio executives, seeking sensationalism, often extend welcome
to those controversial characters. "Yes,"said the host of one such
program, "we invite bigots. But it only for the purpose of making 
them look ridiculous by displaying their inane policies to the public."
Some civic-minded organization said, however, the hosts are not
always equipped to demolish the guests. If they were, the audience would
still be exposed to the venom they spew forth.

To Keep a stiff upper lip--It was admirable to see how the British
managed to keep a stiff upper lip in spite of the German bombing.
