Chapter VII: on Purge of Political Opponents and Section 6 of Chapter XV (2)

When Fritzsche entered the Propaganda Ministry, which has been called the most fabulous “lie factory” of all time, and thus attached himself to the conspiracy, he did so with more of an open mind than most of the conspirators who had committed themselves at an earlier date, before the seizure of power. He was in a particularly strategic position to observe the frauds committed upon the German people and the world by the conspirators.

In 1933, before Fritzsche took his Party oath of unconditional obedience and subservience to the Fuehrer, he had observed at first hand the operations of the storm troopers and the execution of Nazi race actions. When, notwithstanding, Fritzsche undertook to bring all German news agencies within Nazi control, he learned from the inside, indeed from Goebbels himself, the intrigue and lies against opposition groups within and without Germany. He observed, for example, how opposition journalists, a profession to which he had previously belonged, were either absorbed or eliminated. He continued to support the conspiracy. He learned from day to day the art of intrigue and quackery in the process of perverting the German nation, and he grew in prestige and influence as he practiced this art.

Fritzsche learned a lesson from his predecessor, Berndt, who fell from the leadership of the German Press Division partly because he over-played his hand by blunt and excessive manipulation of the Sudetenland propaganda. Fritzsche stepped into the gap caused by the loss of confidence of both the editors and the German people, and did his job with more skill and subtlety. His shrewdness and ability to be more assuring and “to find,” as Goebbels said, “willing ears of the whole nation,”—these things made him the more useful accomplice of the conspirators.

Nazi Germany and its press went into war with Fritzsche in control of all German news, whether by press or radio. In 1942, when Fritzsche transferred from the field of the press to radio, he was not removed for bungling, but because Goebbels then needed his talents most in the field of radio. Fritzsche is not in the dock as a free journalist but as a propagandist who helped substantially to tighten the Nazi stranglehold over the German people, who made the excesses of the conspirators palatable to the German people, who goaded the German nation to fury and crime against people they were told by him were sub-human.

Without the propaganda apparatus of the Nazi State, the world would not have suffered the catastrophe of these years, and it is because of Fritzsche’s role in behalf of the Nazi conspirators, and their deceitful and barbarous practices, that he is called to account before the International Military Tribunal.

TRANSCRIBER NOTES

Punctuation and spelling has been maintained except where obvious printer errors have occurred including missing periods or commas for periods. American spelling occurs throughout the document. There are differences in spellings of cities depending on whether the source is the prosecutor or part of a quoted statement. Multiple occurrences of the following spellings which differ and are found throughout this volume are as follows:

Luxemberg Luxembourg
Esthonia Estonia
Kiew Kiev
Czecho-Slovakia Checkoslovakia

Although some sentences may appear to have incorrect spellings or verb tenses, the original text has been maintained as presented and read into the record and reflects the actual translations of the various national documents presented as material for the trial(s). This volume has no German, Polish, Czech, Russian or other eastern European diacritics, only French diacritics. As a result, Goering and Fuehrer are spelled without umlauts throughout.

In preparing this ebook, proofers noted several errors of fact between the text and the documents being referenced. These are noted in the text as [_sic_] next to the original text. These are:

Page 141: "The SA Conquors Rastenberg," 26 January, 1936[_sic_]:
p. 7. The correct date was 26 January, =1935=.

Page 196: “_The Purge of 20[_sic_] June 1934._” Should read
“_The Purge of =30= June 1934._”

Page 196: Himmler referred to this same event in his Posen
speech when he is quoted “Just as we did not hesitate on June
20[_sic_] 1934, to do the duty we were bidden . . .” should also
read June =30= 1934.

Page 695: A photograph published in “_Der Stuermer_” in April
1937 . . . “Ritual murder at Polna . . . by the Jews Hilsner,
Erdmann[_sic_], and Wassermann, taken from a contemporary
postcard” . . . The actual “_Der Stuermer_” edition has the
photograph caption “by the Jews Hilsner, =Erbmann=, and
Wassermann . . .”

Page 700: “The fire-brigades, which had been notified
immediately, saw to it that the fire was continued[_sic_] to the
original outbreak.” The actual document states that the fire was
=confined=, and not continued, to the original outbreak.

An attempt has been made to produce this ebook in a format as close as possible to the original document's presentation and layout.
