C-SPAN’s chief executives are Susan Swain continued from cover ([email protected]) and Rob Kennedy By Myron Kaplan, www.CAMERA.org ([email protected]). The themes of many such callers are the stereotypical charges of Jewish manip- ulation of U.S. foreign policy and the U.S. economy, and Israeli oppression of Arabs. The callers frequently promote anti-Zionist, anti-Semitic websites by name, encouraging listeners to visit. Among these are American sites as well as Iran’s PressTV site. Occasionally, guest speakers—journalists, authors, academics, government officials—offer information that counters these distortions and falsehoods. But C-SPAN hosts themselves almost invariably sit mute or even, at times, reinforce the bigoted rants. It’s left to the occasional pro-Israel caller, sometimes self- identified Christians, to provide moments of rationality. No other ethnic or religious group has been subjected to such continuous and virulent defamation on the network. Moreover, to date, C-SPAN has stonewalled all efforts to discuss this problem, while the hate-filled calls continue. CAMERA’s website lists a chronology of anti-Semitic utterances by C-SPAN callers. Here’s one from July. The host was Steve Scully. His guest was a senior fellow from the Center for a New American Security. Their topic dealt with renewed violence in Iraq and the fighting in Syria. One of their callers made the statement: “The U.S. or Western nations are trying to change centuries and centuries-old cultures and political systems especially in the Middle East. And of course, everything the U.S. does is by the pressure from Israel—and of course, Israel benefits first—everything is for Israel—it might not help the U.S.” NOTE: The caller charged, “everything the U.S. does in the Middle East is by pressure from Israel and benefits Israel first—everything is for Israel.” Neither the host nor the guest questioned or refuted this obvious falsehood. Guests, of course, may focus on what they will, but when one allows such an audience response to pass without comment, responsibility falls to the host. Yet on Washington Journal, when Israel is gratuitously targeted, that’s a responsibility C-SPAN hosts chronically avoid. Washington Journal, the network’s premier daily public affairs and call-in show, has been given a pass for many years on the failure of its hosts to challenge allegations by anti-Semitic callers. C-SPAN’s major patrons include Comcast, the largest cable television provider in the country. Neil Smit ([email protected]) is president of Comcast Cable and the most prominent member of C-SPAN’s five-member Board of Directors executive com- mittee. Another prominent member is Glenn Britt, Chairman and CEO of Time Warner Cable ([email protected]). “You shall know the truth...” and we will continue to publish it!

Several years ago, I watched 4,000 Christians gather in Washington D.C. to support Israel. They proclaimed an intimate friendship with the tiny Jewish State. They lobbied Congress. They packed tightly into government offices to convince their legislators to stand with our ally. At one point, I stood at the top of a giant stairwell as hundreds streamed by to hear the next inspiring conference speaker. I wept as I realized that these gentile Believers, these Christians, were coming full circle. After two thousand years of daylight between the Church and Jews, the gap was closing. Christians were standing up in record numbers to proclaim their love for the Jewish people. OCTOBER 2012 P.O.

    CELEBRATION ‘Pastors of souls must realise that when liturgy is celebrated, something more is required than the observance of the laws governing valid and lawful celebration. It is their duty also to ensure that the faithful take part, fully aware of what they are doing, actively engaged in the rite and enriched by it.’ (Constitution on the Sacred Liturgy, Para 11) ‘The celebration of the Eucharist, and the entire liturgy, is carried out by the use of outward signs. By these signs faith is nourished, strengthened and expressed. It is thus very important to select and arrange the forms and elements proposed by the Church, which, taking into account individual and local circumstances, will best foster active and full participation and promote the spiritual welfare of the faithful.’ (General Instruction of the Roman Missal No. 5) Order of Divine Office and Mass Compiled, edited and © 2009 by Rev.

MANCHESTER: CHARLES SIMMS AND CO. LONDON: TRUBNER AND CO. M.DCCC.LXXI. PRIniED nv Chari.es S Simms, Manchester PREFACE. HISTORY and genealogy must ever go hand in hand ; for as the genealogist, whilst tracing the descent of a family, cannot fail to contribute something towards the history of the places in which the various branches of that family have lived, so, when by the aid of the historian we " tread the long extent of back ward time," we summon forth a host of witnesses, each one of whom may form a connecting link long looked for by some diligent searcher after " forgotten ancestors." It is now many years since, when, in pursuit of a genealogical inquiry, I paid my first visit to Goosnargh. I there made the acquaintance of Mr. Richard Cookson, who, whilst giving me some information on the subject of my researches, told me that he thought of sometime writing a history of Goosnargh and the neighbourhood, and that, with this object in view, he had, from time to time, collected such materials as came in his way. Since then, having had occasion to consult many origi nal and unpublished manuscripts at the Record office, British museum, the registries of Chester and Richmond, Doctor's Commons, &c., I found that I had myself by this means got together (without designing to do so) matter which would — at least so I judged — go far towards furnishing materials for a history of Goosnargh ; 1V PREFACE.
