Le 1er août 1936, à Berlin, le chancelier Adolf Hitler proclame l'ouverture des onzièmes Jeux olympiques modernes ; comment les nazis ont-ils médiatisé l'événement ?
A new issue dedicated to the very controversial Olympic Games opened by Hitler.
Saturday, August 1, 1936, in Berlin. In the modern, monumental Berlin sports stadium, which can accommodate 100,000 people, Chancellor Adolf Hitler opens the 11th modern Summer Olympics, officially called "Games of the XI Olympiad". Never have there been so many participating countries and athletes despite the many protest movements and calls for a boycott, especially in the United States. How were the black American athletes, whose achievements were particularly eagerly awaited, received in the racist totalitarian regime? What importance did Hitler and other leading Nazis attach to these games? What means of propaganda did they use and how did they use the media? And under what conditions were the foreign journalists allowed to report on the major sporting event?
