Why would Newsmax be playing the life of Adolf Hitler?

[ybbor]

Was scrolling through the guide last nite and saw that as the program on the supposed “news” channel.

Were they giving their viewers ideas? They are mainstreaming fascist ideals.

I am deeply concerned for what this country is becoming.

1. Too early for spring ratings.

Nazis and Kennedys have long been a staple of ratings periods on some networks. Newsmax may just be paying homage to its patron saint.

11. Springtime for Hitler?

Hahahaha

2. Role model?

3. Hero Worship

It is Newsmax after all. They ran some Brad Melzer stuff, too. My system reminded me it was coming on, but I assumed it was Military History, so I hit "Watch".
Went to screen asking for PIN. I set PINs for them, Faux, Faux Biz,, & OANN. Just pushed random buttons, so even I don't know how to unlock that trash.
The Melzer thing makes sense for that outfit because some episodes are pretty CTish.

4. because Newsmax is fascist?

just a guess

5. Playing History Channel rejects?

Trying to find filler material on the cheap?

6. Because the Cheney History Channel loaned them the videos. nt

7. Because they're promoting him.

For the enjoyment of their readers.

9. They are not big enough to have the resources necessary to program a 24 hour news day. So during

off hours they show other programming like that, much of which is in the public domain and costs them nothing in royalties.

10. Why would Newsmax be playing the life of Adolf Hitler?

They play Hitler documentaries all the time.

They seem to be fascinated by Hitler.

They also love Trump 🤔

14. Instructional video.

How to Nazi for beginners.

15. Hagiography.

[Mr. Ected]

16. Messaging. Reaching their target audience. Teaching. Normalizing.

They are truly attempting to inculcate an army of fascists. They're not even trying to hide it.

I wonder how this could ever be considered protected speech when it supports the destruction of the precepts giving rise to free speech itself.

17. So we can learn to recognize the fascism surrounding us?
