The Power of Nazi
Propaganda
ReasonTV
Published on Dec 2, 2010
From radio and film to newspapers and publishing, the
Nazi regime controlled every aspect of German culture from 1933-1945. Through
Josef Goebbels' Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda, the German
state tightly controlled political messaging, promoting deification of the
leader—the Führerprinzip—and the demonization of the ubiquitous and
duplicitious "racial enemy." A new exhibit at the United States
Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., examines "how the Nazi
Party used modern techniques as well as new technologies and carefully crafted
messages to sway millions with its vision for a new Germany." Reason.tv's Michael
C. Moynihan visited with museum historian and curator Steve Luckert to discuss
the role and effectiveness of propaganda in the rise of fascism and what
lessons can be drawn from the Nazi experiment in mass manipulation.
Researcher’s Note: Hitler used “RED” signs because he
knew it would provoke people.
