The British Government and the Media, 1937-1938

Abstract

This article is a revised version of a paper presented to the Colloque 'La perception de la puissance en Europe occidentale à la veille de la seconde guerre mondiale', organized by Professor René Girault of the Université de Paris X Nanterre, at Sèvres in April 1982. I am grateful to Mr Nicholas Pronay, Dr Philip M. Taylor, and Mr Wesley K. Wark for their generous advice. I am indebted to the BBC and to the Royal Insitute of International Affairs for permission to reproduce material from their archives. Since the role of The Times has been extensively analyzed, I have focused on the BBC and the press in general. For The Times see The History of The Times, vol. 4, Part II (London 1952); Franklin Reid Gannon, The British Press and Germany (London 1971); Keith Middlemas, Diplomacy of Illusion (London 1972); I. McDonald, A Man of the Times (London 1976); D. McLachlan, In the Chair: Barrington-Ward of 'The Times' (London 1971).
