Speaking of Liberty


(4.7 étoiles; 9 critiques)

Speaking of Liberty was sponsored by the Council on Democracy and broadcast by the NBC Red network. Rex Stout hosted a variety of guests who were "speaking of liberty." The show returned for a second series due to positive audience response.

Guests included notable figures such as Carl Van Doren, who discussed the American Revolution, and Edmond Taylor, who spoke about the effects of propaganda. Other guests included authors and journalists who shared their insights on democracy, civil liberties, and the impact of war.

This series offers a rich exploration of the themes of liberty and democracy through the voices of its diverse guests.

While the information is biased, I believe the guests views are sincere and representative primary material for this era.

Thanks so much for this!

Thanks for posting. These shows are a great addition to the archive, and to anyone's collection of WWII era propaganda programs.
