Abstract
Schnitzler's journalistic career was closely intertwined with larger political developments. Its vicissitudes indicate major shifts in the role of politics in broadcasting. Declared anti-Nazism enabled Schnitzler to receive journalistic training at the BBC German Service during World War II. It also allowed him to rise to a central position in British-controlled post-war radio in Germany. Declared Communism caused him to lose this position at the onset of the Cold War. Schnitzler's relocation to the East was part of a larger regional concentration of political elites. Parallel to the pressure curve of the Cold War, his career went through a second complete cycle of success and subsequent failure.
