1. Hitler’s Use of
Propaganda
“Circumstances have forced me to talk
almost exclusively for peace for
decades….It has now become
necessary to psychologically change
the German people’s course in a
gradual way and slowly make it realize
that there are things that must…be
carried through by force and
violence….This work has required
months, it was begun systematically; it
is being continued and reinforced.”—
Adolf Hitler
2. Radio
– Hitler considered the radio to be ‘the
most modern and most important
instrument of mass influence.’
Press
– ‘the National Socialist
Weltanschauung sees in the press a
means of educating the people for
National Socialism. In consequence,
the press is an instrument of the
National Socialist of other basic
political ideas. On this basis a state
whose foundation is the National
Socialist movement recognizes only
the National Socialist Press.’
Film Industry
– “Triumph des Willens: “No film about
Hitler would ever match its power…”
