| Abstract: | In 1942, the Dutch Episcopal Conference asked Titus Brandsma, the ecclesiastical adviser to Catholic journalists, to personally circulate their letter addressed to editors of Catholic newspapers, banning the printing of Nazi propaganda. The letter was the Church’s response to a law passed by German occupiers in the Netherlands, obliging media outlets to publish official Nazi propaganda. Opposition was considered treason, and “enemies of the state” would be imprisoned and interned in concentration camps and have their newspapers and publication houses closed. |
