Use of Video Propaganda in Allied Powers:

Main Idea: This is a parody of the Three Little Pigs written in the perspective of a Anti-German writer. The "big bad wolf" is the clearly stated as the Adolf Hitler who went against the Non-Aggression Pacts and blew down the houses of the small "pigs". The video shows how the pigs and the wolf went against each other, and eventually, the pigs won by bombing the wolf with the use of "defense bonds."

Primary Source

“Here in Germany, there were a thousand such clubs. Some joined together in larger organizations, such as the German Technical Radio Federation, the Communist Free Radio Federation, and the Marxist Workers’ Radio Federation. All of these organizations had an extraordinarily vague ideology. They did not serve the good of the radio listener, but rather, from the National Socialist viewpoint, sprang from the particular nature of radio. At the time, it was directed monopolistically from a central office, which made any influence from outside impossible through ordinary means.
