What difference does it make? It was still a platform. My memory says it was a talking point/questions when they would do an episode on the early years of the Gay Rights movement.
Leaders would come on the show and Buchanon (also Novak) would bring NAMBLA up and try to get the representatives to comment negatively on the group.
I was asking if the NAMBLA spokesmen were on the Crossfire shows selling their case for NAMBLA.
It makes all the difference, using NAMBLA as an attack on the youth obsessed homosexual movement was a great thing to do since NAMBLA is a part of the homosexual movement, but putting their spokesmen on TV to sell it was a terrible thing to do.
