ABSTRACT
By the 1930s founder Henry Ford was becoming increasingly erratic. A fierce anti-Semite, he had spent more money in the early 1920s distributing copies of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, a tract that purported to lay out plans for the Jewish takeover of Western Christian institutions, than he had on Ford advertising. Ford’s investment in network radio in the 1930s was mainly the Ford Sunday Evening Hour, a program of classical music and inspirational talks reflecting Ford’s views of the world-although without the anti-Semitism.
