It's a small fire moved to the conspiracy nut dungeon but is there anything too stupid for these fools to fall for?

Faux did propagana films for hitler in 1932??   Updated at 2:51 AM
   
Edited on Wed Oct-20-10 02:53 AM by undergroundpanther
Observers of the current US election season have noted the prominent role of Rupert Murdoch’s reactionary Fox News Channel, which currently employs GOP and “Tea Party” partisans Sarah Palin, Glen Beck, Mike Huckabee, Newt Gingrich, Rick Santorum, Sean Hannity, and others. Some have alleged that a television network carrying so many potential political candidates and propagandists on its payroll is unprecedented. But there is a precedent for large-scale Fox intervention into a political campaign.

In 1932, the German newsreel subsidiary of Fox News Channel’s corporate ancestor, Fox Films, intervened in national elections in Germany.

The candidate Fox supported was Nazi leader Adolf Hitler.

The basic facts are available in German historian Hans Mommsen’s authoritative study entitled The Rise and Fall of Weimar Democracy, which is translated into English and widely available in over five hundred libraries in this country. Mommsen, one of the most distinguished postwar German historians, is now Professor Emeritus of History at the University of Bochum. In Mommsen’s account of Nazi propaganda techniques, we find the following: “There was nothing that escaped the ingenuity of Nazi propagandists. A case in point was the use of film. Under Goebbels’ influence the party had begun to exploit the potential of the political propaganda film to an unprecedented extent as early as 1930. Such films were shown mostly in places where Hitler and other prominent party leaders were not able to appear as speakers. For the manufacture of outdoor sound film, the NSDAP turned to an American company, Twentieth Century Fox." :nuke:

4. I doubt this is true. 20th Cen. Fox was owned by 4 Jews in the 1930s
   
Darryl F. Zanuck, Joseph Schenck, Raymond Griffith and William Goetz. I'm pretty sure they knew what Hitler and his Nazis were all about.

Also, in 1930 only Fox Films existed. That company was started in 1915 by WIlliam Fox. 20th Century Pictures (started by those 4 producers) began in 1933, and did not merge with Fox until 1935.

Twentieth Century Fox was created in 1935 in a merger.

Hey, CBS, ABC, and NBC all made propaganda for His Imperial Majesty, Barak the Immortal, when he was only President (Peace be upon Him!), back before the Declaration of Enforced Harmony.

My thoughts exactly.

The subway cat's trying to improve on her standings from last year's Top DUmmies [Primitives].

She was number #04 last year, but while this is impressive, I suspect the subway cat's going to have to do better yet, so as to move up in the rankings.

I guess the DUmmies didn't get the memo about how the Nazis ran the TV's on Fox News 24/7 in the Death Camps to torture the Jews before they were sent off to the ovens.  ::)  :mental:

6. I think we should take special precautions and imprison Michael J. Fox.
   
Also burn all copies of the Fantastic Mr. Fox,and well as the Fox and the Hound.

Just to make sure.

Damn- Dreamer Tatum really cracks me up sometimes.

Where the hell does she dig this crap up.  UGP should really be placed in some sort of forced labor program.  Doing something useful like digging a hole and filling it up again or something.

I spend most of my time delivering mail listening to Graham. He kills me. I can occasionally be heard on the confession hotline doing an awful Clinton impersonation - the last one being birthday greetings for 'Phoenix Mountwood' from 'an 'unknown former president'..
