| 27. I remember Billy James Hargis, head of American Christian College |

I believe his show was broadcast on KTUL Channel 8 back in the early 70s. I remember him talking about the Nixon-McGovern election in '72 and telling how the Red Chinese were poised to strike the US if Nixon wasn't elected. So maybe he was the first wave of political flunkies acting as right-wing preachers.
It also seems that ol' Billy was involved in some sort of career-ending scandal. So maybe he was a trend-setter in this area, too.
