Aim of publishing fake Hitler diaries: whitewashing Hitler – Media

40 years after the scandal surrounding the im star published alleged diaries of Adolf Hitler, an investigative ARD research is now fully documenting the forgery for the first time. This Friday it will also appear as a book (“The real false ‘Hitler-Diaries'”, John Goetz, März-Verlag). The notes written by Konrad Kujau, which no one has examined in detail to this day, form a spooky document of contemporary history. The research, which is based on investigation files, court documents and other documents, shows not only that the forger Kujau worked closely with old and neo-Nazis, but also that the publication in the star was a trivialization of Hitler. The political scientist and Nazi expert Hajo Funke accompanied the publication scientifically.
