Czech journalists and the Jewish question during the Second Republic and in the first months of the Protectorate
2017
Abstract
During Czechoslovakia's post-Munich Second Republic the country was hit by a wave of anti-Semitism. The right-wing newspapers kept publishing a host of articles attacking the Jews.
Many Journalists of Jewish origin also lost their jobs in state administration. In Protectorate Jewish newsmen lost any chance of finding a job in their domain.
Membership of the National Union of Journalists was now mandatory for all journalists, while each member had to submit documents proving his of her Aryan origin.
