The Nazi on the Bestseller List. “German media giant Bertelsmann, still feverishly trying to make
people forget that it once marketed Hitler to the masses, is now
selling a Vermont professor’s regurgitation of the ideas of America’s
foremost living Hitler admirer, William Pierce, author of the Turner
Diaries.
Unable to find a publisher for his 420-page labor of love, University
of Vermont education professor Robert S. Griffin is peddling The Fame of a Dead Man’s Deeds: An Up-Close
Portrait of White Nationalist William Pierce for $8 per download on MightyWords.com, where it has the
immediate potential to reach millions of people.
The Web site is owned jointly, through a subsidiary, by Bertelsmann and Barnes & Noble. And Griffin’s
e-book has zoomed to No. 1 on the MightyWords bestseller list.
Griffin, in an interview with the Voice, insists he’s no mere publicist for Pierce, an ex-physicist whom Jewish
activists consider America’s most intellectual—and most dangerous—anti-Semite and racist.” Village Voice
