Adolf Hitler About the Propaganda




The cleaning of our public life of manifestations of decay leads to a reform of our press, of film and of theater life.

Speech of January 30, 1934 in Berlin

It is no pleasure to read fifteen newspapers, which all have almost the same content: over the course of time our editors must again be so schooled that they can add their own valuable contributions to the national construction. But I can assure you of one thing: I will tolerate no press, whose purpose is to destroy what we have started to build up.

Interview of April 3, 1934 in Berlin

If it is the attitude of an editor to put his own interesting world-view in opposition to ours, he should be told that I will then use the modern possibilities of the press likewise to combat him. I will give no chance whatever to the agents of foreign powers; such agents violate their right as guest. I welcome a foreign correspondent who reports objectively and without bias what he sees and hears in Germany. But every correspondent - for the sake of himself as well as of his reputation as journalist - should not expose himself to the risk of having to later contradict himself.

Interview of April 3, 1934 in Berlin

While I on the one hand wish criticism, I on the other hand insist that those who work for the well-being of the whole folk must have the security of being able to pursue their work in peace.

Interview of April 3, 1934 in Berlin

A press, which is fundamentally anti-national, cannot be tolerated in Germany. Whoever denies the nation, has no business in it. We must demand that the press becomes the instrument of the national self-education.

Speech of April 27, 1923 in Munich

The name “Völkischer Beobachter” [“Folkish Observer”] has become a program for itself. Made war upon and attacked by a whole world of enemies, countless times persecuted and banned, our central organ has conveyed to tens of thousands and again tens of thousands of fighters the spiritual basics and fundaments, which make up the essence of our present National Socialist view. Distributed across the entire German-speaking area of Europe, our “Völkischer Beobachter” has helped everywhere to create cells for the German liberation struggle, but conveyed to existing groups that knowledge, which is indispensable for the unity of the thought and of the action of our movement.
