It was used to raise the morale happiness of people at home and the forces fighting abroad, and to make the enemy seem more brutal. Propaganda was used to decrease the morale of the people on the other side to try and get them to oppose the war and lose their belief in a victory. Adolf Hitler used propaganda posters to show himself surrounded by adoring followers to make him look like a great leader. This poster was used in the US to remind people that gas was scarce.
The propaganda tactic that best showed this type of stereotypical view were the pictures of Jewish people and how different they were compared to Nazi soldiers.
As shown in the poster on page 13 of the Jewish man, the Jews are depicted with big noses and are very ugly with hunched backs. The propagandists tried to disgust people to bring out their inner hate for Jews. As seen in the poster of the young Nazi man on page 13, this soldier is portrayed in perfect health and looks like a model.
These posters were also successful because they helped the Nazi party grow and fulfill its goals of destroying the Jewish nation. During the war, American propagandist and political cartoonist portrayed the Japanese as foolish and depraved, or as animals or monsters. Most of the American propaganda posters, which portrayed the enemy as animals were aimed toward the Japanese, rendering their figures so they would be more sinister, animalistic, and savage.
He is portrayed wanting the American people to lay back and not help so they can get the upper hand and attack us when our backs are turned. American poster makers portrayed the Japanese the same way as soldiers viewed them.
Many posters that were made by the Americans toward the Japanese showed them as animals and not humans and assisted in spreading these hateful attitudes all over the nation the American public. Both countries did not just use posters to influence their nations; they needed a piece of advertisement that could reach everyone and fast. It had to be something that everyone would see on a regular bases and also be effective in installing propagandist thoughts.
Both Germany and The United States used the art of film to persuade their countries to participate in the war and movie makers played a big part in making films that fulfilled these acts of propaganda.
For Germany, Joseph Goebbels was the man who came up with this brilliant idea. He believed the best way to reach the mass population of Germany would be through movies and newsreels. Herzstein also wrote,. People all over Germany would go to the theatre to see the newsreels and see what the war was like on the western front.
These movies were perfect for the purpose of the Nazi party because they only showed select things to help their casue. Once Germans saw these films they would go and join the army to fight in the war because these films touched their patriotism and persuaded them into the Nazi party too help aid their country.
The United States also used the power of film development to promote Nationalistic views within Americans. Before movies in the theatres, newsreels were shown and most of these reels, during the war, persuaded people to help in the war attempt.
This is a piece of propaganda that tells people to take vengeance on the Japanese for their terrible attack on Pearl Harbor and it was broadcasted about one year after the attack. Avenge December 7 promotes people to buy bonds and stamps, so Americans can give their part to help gain a victory.
Everyone in this theatre can know the personal pride and joy in taking part too. The film makers reach out to the American public and hit them in a sensitive spot.
It was like they were digging the knife deeper into the American citizens back just to get them to buy bail bonds. Their reasoning behind this add was for the public to buy these stamps not only for themselves, but the brave soldiers who were at Pearl Harbor on December seventh. Companies used the power of propaganda to advertise their products and to promote a sense of nationalism and they were victorious on all fronts because again, Americans wanted to help out in every way and advertisers gave them these chances through the sale of petty products.
After the Nazi loss at Stalingrad in February , Goebbels admitted recent losses and argued for total war in his famous Sportpalast speech.
While the new strategy prolonged the war, Goebbels recognized that his efforts were failing. A month before his suicide in Berlin, he took note of the Allied propaganda being directed back at him.
Anglo-American leaflets are now no longer carelessly thrown aside but are read attentively; British broadcasts have a grateful audience. The British Broadcasting Company's foreign language broadcasts became a key element in the Allied campaign for German loyalties.
By the British had established more than 40 clandestine pseudo-German radio stations using powerful American transmitters. The P. Though a product of Hollywood, William Wyler's award-winning Mrs. Miniver portrayed the struggle on the British home front and glorified Britain's resolve to fight. The film ended with a rousing sermon in a bombed-out church: "This is the people's war. It is our war. We are the fighters. Fight it, then.
