Nazi Propaganda: Reich Ministry
built 135 days ago
These were the main organizations in the USA the Nazi employed for their propaganda, in an attempt to gain support, mainly from the American public. But in order to reach their goals, such highly organized structures were not enough. Nazis knew that without an expert analysis of the target-areas and of the public that would be more opened to their message, their undertaking would be destined to fail. Also, since the very beginning, it was necessary a clear view of the best ways their message would use to reach the public. A most interesting German document on this subject is a report of Richard Salet, representative of Ministry of Propaganda at the Washington embassy, to the ministry, in the summer of 1934.[23]

The Nazis took over Austria in March 1938, providing a new arena for propaganda. This picture shows an enormous version of "Ein Volk Ein Reich Ein Führer" [One People One Reich One Führer] carved into the side of the Brandjoch, a peak in the Karwendel range visible from Innsbruck. According to the caption, the words in the snow, put there by local mountain climbers, were almost a mile long.

When the Nazis took power the Propaganda Ministry was established almost immediately. It was charged with enforcing Nazi doctrine on the people and controlling public opinion. However, the Ministry became even more important after the outbreak of war.
