1922年《纽约时报》第一次报道希特勒，说希特勒反犹太不是他自己说的那么激烈或真实

然而我们都看到了事后历史的发展完全不是纽时预料的那样。

 

我不是在说川普是希特勒，其实你看川普曾经拿高管们的高工资说事，在共和党里以已算是够离经叛道的，在这里看到有人说实际上在所有候选人之中，川普是最不右的，想想似乎也是这样。

 

我觉得真正应该警惕的反倒是传媒，所谓的立场公正几乎是个传说，这真令人不安。

 

《纽时》当年的报道，一样的“道貌岸然”，读起来蛮吓人的。

 

New York Times, November 21, 1922

 

He is credibly credited with being actuated by lofty, unselfish patriotism. He probably does not know himself just what he wants to accomplish. The keynote of his propaganda in speaking and writing is violent anti-Semitism. His followers are nicknamed the "Hakenkreuzler." So violent are Hitler's fulminations against the Jews that a number of prominent Jewish citizens are reported to have sought safe asylums in the Bavarian highlands, easily reached by fast motor cars, whence they could hurry their women and children when forewarned of an anti-Semitic St. Bartholomew's night. But several reliable, well-informed sources confirmed the idea that Hitler's anti-Semitism was not so genuine or violent as it sounded, and that he was merely using anti-Semitic propaganda as a bait to catch masses of followers and keep them aroused, enthusiastic, and in line for the time when his organization is perfected and sufficiently powerful to be employed effectively for political purposes. A sophisticated politician credited Hitler with peculiar political cleverness for laying emphasis and over-emphasis on anti-Semitism, saying: "You can't expect the masses to understand or appreciate your finer real aims. You must feed the masses with cruder morsels and ideas like anti-Semitism. It would be politically all wrong to tell them the truth about where you really are leading them."
