"The Derek Black Show," based in south Florida and catering to white racists, could be looking for a new home
BY HEIDI BEIRICH, SOUTHERN POVERTY LAW CENTER
Don Black, the founder of Stormfront, the oldest and largest white nationalist forum, is apparently trying to figure out what to do with his and his son Dereks radio show, The Derek Black Show.
In a recent Stormfront thread, Black noted that as of January 20, 2013, the ownership of south Floridas WPBR, the surprisingly Haitian-oriented station where the Black show which caters to white racists is based, changes. However, he said that the current owner would like Black to stay with the internet broadcasting service after January 20, but Black isnt sure he wants to do that, and said that he may end the show because of a recent screw-up, he said, with the radio shows archives.
According to Black, longtime conspiracist and broadcaster Jeff Rense has offered his network to Black, which is less expensive, Black says, and provides a separate server for smartphones. The Rense network also harbors David Dukes radio show. But even that doesnt appear to be a perfect solution, because Black is worried about scheduling with his current hosts and, ultimately, he says, I never intended to do this show, not even going into the station when we first set it up for Derek three years ago.
Dons son, Derek, is currently attending New College in Florida and has not been active on the radio show in some time. Recently, there have been questions about Dereks commitment to the racist views of his father. In response to student concerns at the college he attends, Derek posted in an online student forum that he is not a white supremacist, supports gay marriage and is pro-choice.

Over the air entertainment is dying. The revenues have seriously dropped

This guy's last name is "Black", and yet he's the leader of a white nationalist show?
