EDWARD BERNAYS FORMS PROPAGANDA COMMITTEE
Wilson establishes the Committee on Public Information (CPI) for the purpose
of manipulating public opinion in support of the war. Edward Bernays, "the
father of American propaganda" is a CPI member. A nephew of the
psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud, Zionist Bernays boasts of his ability to control
the public mind. He calls his scientific methods for controlling public opinion,
"the engineering of consent." In his 1928 book, Propaganda, .Bernays explains:
"The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the habits and opinions of the
masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate
this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the
true ruling power of our country. - We are governed, our minds are molded, our
tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of. It is
they who pull the wires that control the public mind." (22) Bernays and his CPI
co-conspirators portray the American war effort as a holy crusade "to make the
world safe for democracy", while at the same time spreading hate-filled
propaganda directed towards Germany and its Emperor, Wilhelm II.
