Although I disagree with some of his observations, I found his viewpoint interesting and believe you will...
...implications that the late Herr Goebbels presumably got out of that issue of TIME were no longer of strategic importance to last week's Berliners, who snatched up their quota (3,000 copies) in an hour. It was their first opportunity to buy an unofficial English language magazine in postwar Germany...
