German Home Front
Morale and Nazi Propaganda
During the Onslaught
of Allied Bombers

Here is a Click Magazine article from 1943 which concerned the hardships experienced on the German home front and the Nazi propaganda that was dished out daily:

“We cannot conduct a Gallup poll in Germany, but we can find out by other opinion polls and from other inquiring reporters what the average German is thinking. Our reporters are the Nazis themselves. The poll is tallied daily at short-wave listening stations, among them that of the Columbia Broadcasting System. The C.B.S. corps of engineers monitors and records and interprets the voices of the enemy.”

“The Nazi propaganda here analyzed is a record of Nazi failure to keep the German people from thinking ‘non-German’ thoughts and failure to prevent the record from being known.”

This article is illustrated with fourteen W.W. II photographs.
