Abstract
Reaching to archival records, the article describes the ways in which broadcasting radio stations which remained under the control of Nazi during World War II, influenced public opinion in order to falsify the image and mislead the public with reference to the statesman and respected authority, Cardinal August Hlond – the Primate of Poland. The author elucidates the history introducing the readers into the context of the initial phase of the warfare on the territory of Poland. It also centres on Cardinal Hlond’s stay in Rome, his pastoral and diplomatic activity aimed at presenting a veracious picture of the fate of Poland and its people during German occupation. It was exactly this activity which became inconvenient for the occupant and resulted in mass propaganda undertaken by Nazi broadcasting stations.
