German Public TV Finds Elon Musk is Somehow Like Goebbels

After Germany’s “first” public television network, ARD, compared Elon Musk reducing Twitter censorship to “letting rats out of their holes,” Germany’s “second” public television network, ZDF, has now compared Musk to Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels!

This is a comparison that it perhaps ought not to have made given that during the Second World War the network’s founding director, Karl Holzamer, worked as a “reporter” in one of the propaganda units that were embedded with the German Wehrmacht by none other than … Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels.

For the details, see my new post at Brownstone here.

(And my apologies to Substack subscribers for having neglected to do a mailing on my last post on the ARD’s “rat” comparison. But you will find that one linked in the current post.)
