This chapter concludes Hollywood Hates Hitler. Yogerst writes that the 1941 Senate Investigation into Motion Picture Propaganda did not make, break, or define anyone. However, it served as a crowning point in United States history where a hotly debated topic over the European war centered on blaming movies for any interventionist attitude. History has shown that as long as popular culture continues to flourish, the threats of politicians and self-appointed moral crusaders will continue. However, any argument to do away with the next feared form of popular culture will likely be as empty as those brought forth by the isolationist senators in 1941
Title: Overshadowed by History
Description:
This chapter concludes Hollywood Hates Hitler.
Yogerst writes that the 1941 Senate Investigation into Motion Picture Propaganda did not make, break, or define anyone.
However, it served as a crowning point in United States history where a hotly debated topic over the European war centered on blaming movies for any interventionist attitude.
History has shown that as long as popular culture continues to flourish, the threats of politicians and self-appointed moral crusaders will continue.
However, any argument to do away with the next feared form of popular culture will likely be as empty as those brought forth by the isolationist senators in 1941.
