Appearances On Television
Rubin also made a number of televised appearances during his lifetime. These include a lively 1988 debate on Crossfire with black nationalist Steve Cokely, shortly following a controversial lecture Cokely gave in which he believed that Jewish doctors were inoculating black babies with the HIV virus, appearing on the History Channel documentary Nazi America: A Secret History, and a memorable June 1998 appearance on the Jerry Springer Show where he and his bodyguards (Al and Joseph whom both were not Jewish) rushed to defend him from members of the Ku Klux Klan after the leader of the KKK sucker punched him in the face while wearing a yarmulke.

“What is a television apparatus to man, who has only to shut his eyes to see the most inaccessible regions of the seen and the never seen, who has only to imagine in order to pierce through walls and cause all the planetary Baghdads of his dreams to rise from the dust.”
