...Airlink, which emanates from Mississippi, propagates its "pro-majority" views in somewhat more sedate fashion. "We don't use four-letter words, and there's no hollering or yelling," says Richard Barrett, 49, a New York-born lawyer who heads the right-wing Nationalist Movement and is Airlink's producer and host. There are, however, plenty of approving words for neo-Nazi groups and whites who arm themselves against violent minorities.
