  • Yesterday's News: Media Framing of Hitler's Early Years, 1923-1924
    92 — The Elon Journal of Undergraduate Research in Communications, Vol. 6, No. 1 • Spring 2015 Yesterday’s News: Media Framing of Hitler’s Early Years, 1923-1924 Katherine Blunt Journalism and History Elon University Abstract This research used media framing theory to assess newspaper coverage of Hitler published in The New York Times, The Christian Science Monitor, and The Washington Post between 1923 and 1924. An analysis of about 200 articles revealed “credible” and “non-credible” frames relating to his political influence. Prior to Hitler’s trial for treason in 1924, the credible frame was slightly more prevalent. Following his subsequent conviction, the non-credible frame dominated coverage, with reports often presenting Hitler’s failure to over- throw the Bavarian government as evidence of his lack of political skill. This research provides insight into the way American media cover foreign leaders before and after a tipping point—one or more events that call into question their political efficacy. I. Introduction The resentment, suspicion, and chaos that defined global politics during the Great arW continued into the 1920s. Germany plunged into a state of political and economic turmoil following the ratification of the punitive Treaty of Versailles, and the Allies watched with trepidation as it struggled to make reparations pay- ments. The bill — equivalent to 33 billion dollars then and more than 400 billion dollars today — grew increas- ingly daunting as the value of the mark fell from 400 to the dollar in 1922 to 7,000 to the dollar at the start of 1923, when Bavaria witnessed the improbable rise of an Austrian-born artist-turned-politician who channeled German outrage into a nationalistic, anti-Semitic movement that came to be known as the Nazi Party.1 Ameri- can media outlets, intent on documenting the chaotic state of post-war Europe, took notice of Adolf Hitler as he attracted a following and, through their coverage, essentially introduced him to the American public.

  • THE CONTENDER a Year Before the Democratic National Convention of 1924 the Contest for the Party's Presidential Nomination
    THE CONTENDER A year before the Democratic National Convention of 1924 the contest for the party’s presidential nomination had become one between William Gibbs McAdoo and Senator Oscar W. Underwood, a wet, conservative Alabamian. A large number of favorite sons and other minor candidates, all hoping for the nomination if the two principals deadlocked, also figured in the preconvention plans of the leaders of the Democratic Party. At the time of the Mullan-Gage episode Al Smith was merely one of these other candidates. A few politicians and other observers had predicted, particularly after Smith’s impressive victory in 1922, that he would be a presidential candidate in 1924, but they had usually considered Smith to be only a minor contender for the nomination. 1 The prominence that Smith received from the Mullan-Gage affair – as well as from his subsequent, somewhat mystifying visit to the Midwest – heightened speculation about his presidential candidacy for a few months and led some of McAdoo’s friends to believe that Smith would soon commence an energetic national campaign for the nomination. Only a few commentators during the last half of 1923, however, ranked Smith among the leading contenders; and when he made no apparent effort to undertake an active campaign, they too began to discount his candidacy. By the end of the year, and even into 1924, nearly every published analysis of the Democratic contest either completely ignored Smith or else mentioned him as an afterthought, and even some of Smith’s most ardent enemies no longer regarded his candidacy as a serious threat.

    BECOMING MODERN: AMERICA IN THE 1920S PRIMARY SOURCE COLLECTION ONTEMPORAR Y IN OMMENTARY * T HE T WENTIES C National Archives Clifford Berryman, “Ain’t Politics Grand?” political cartoon, October 18, 1924 (detail) — MODERN DEMOCRACY — In the traumatic aftermath of World War One, many questioned whether man’s civilization had revealed a dooming weakness, and if one of its greatest achievements—democracy—was only a fragile ideal. Did the war “to make the world safe for democracy” expose a world unfit for democracy? And what about America? For 130 years the republic had survived chronic growing pains—and a murderous civil war—but was it, too, displaying signs of dissolution and rot?

  • The British Empire Exhibition, 1924/25
    The British Empire Exhibition, 1924/25 The event which probably had the most important effect on Wembley’s history was the British Empire Exhibition of 1924/25. The idea for a great exhibition, to show off the industry and natural resources of the British Empire, was first suggested before the First World War. In 1919 the Prince of Wales agreed to be President of the organising committee for an exhibition whose aim was ‘... to enable all who owe allegiance to the British flag to meet on common ground and learn to know each other.’ By 1921 the former pleasure grounds at Wembley Park had been chosen as the place to hold it, within easy reach of Central London and with a good railway service. A colour illustration of the India Pavilion, from the lakeside gardens, in 1925 > The Prince was keen that the scheme should include ‘a great national sports ground’, so work began on the Empire Stadium in January 1922. Local roads were made wider, and extra platforms were added at Wembley Park station. The concrete stadium was finished in time for the F.A. Cup Final in April 1923, but building the rest of the site took longer. It was not until 23 April 1924 that King George V came to Wembley to announce: ‘I declare this Exhibition open’, in the first ever radio broadcast by a British monarch, and visitors began to flock to the exhibition from all over the country, and around the world. < A 1924 leaflet advertising the Exhibition, and the 1925 edition (Spanish version) > [Source for all images: Brent Archives – Wembley History Society Collection] 1 The Exhibition included huge “Palaces” of Industry, Engineering, Horticulture and Arts, and “Pavilions” housing displays for His Majesty’s Government as well as from almost every country in the British Empire.
