The New York Guardian gained national attention in 1993 when it exposed the historical inaccuracy of the PBS documentary Liberators: Fighting on Two Fronts in World War II, which alleged that an all-African American Army unit liberated the Dachau and Buchenwald concentration camps near the end of World War II.[1][2][3]
The New York Guardian ceased publication in 1994 when it was purchased by Human Events, the weekly conservative newspaper.
