Circumstances seemed unfavourable for a Labour victory in a 1950 election but, when it was held, Attlee managed to lead his party to the second win in its history. It took a majority of the popular vote, and even a majority of parliamentary seats, though way down from its previous landslide to a mere five.With that small majority, it was poorly placed to deal with the continuing financial difficulties of the country. These were made worse by involvement in the Korean War, which meant rearming. The funds for the war had to be found somewhere, and the Chancellor of the Exchequer, a rising star of the Party, Hugh Gaitskell, decided that had to come in part from raiding the National Health Service and the Social Insurance Fund.In disgust, the architect of the health service, Nye Bevan, resigned from the government. With him went another young rising figure, Harold Wilson, who had become the youngest cabinet minister in Britain in the whole of the twentieth century. At that stage he stood with the left and with Bevan, though later he would turn on his mentor, taking a seat in the Shadow Cabinet when Labour was back in Opposition, a seat vacated precisely by another resignation on principle by Bevan.There were difficulties internationally too, with the Mossadegh government in Iran set to nationalise British oil industries there, and nationalist forces in Egypt putting pressure on the British garrison guarding the Suez Canal. Attlee's friend and loyal supporter, the long-time Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin had died in April 1951, and his successor Herbert Morrison wasn't up to the job, adding these foreign crises to the burden on Attlee.With Bevan's left-wing group organising against him and making his parliamentary majority look decidedly fragile, the aging and tired Attlee called another election. Held on 28 October 1951, it saw Labour at last lose its majority and the Conservatives win one.Attlee was out. Churchill was back.Illustration: The Royal Festival Hall in London, souvenir of the 1951 Festival of Britain, itself marking the centenary of the Great Exhibition in Victorian times.

Britain, along with France, might well have declared war against Germany in September 1939. But that didn't lead to much fighting for the next eight months. There was some action at sea, during which the British Royal Navy put an end to German surface raiders, though it had still to face the worst threat to its maritime trade, which came not from ships on the surface, but from submarines. On land, in the west, there was practically no action, in what came to be known as ‘the phoney war'. It wasn't phoney for the Poles of course, who were being bombed and invaded, first only by the Germans from the west, but soon by the Soviets from the east too, rather confirming what many suspected, that the Nazi-Soviet pact included a secret protocol dividing up Poland between the two countries. The Pact also provided the Soviets with the confidence to invade Finland which they did at the end of November. Britain and France decided to come to the Finns' aid by landing troops at the Norwegian port of Narvik, but it took them so long that Finland had been defeated, after some heroic resistance, before the Allies could help. However, the Allies went on with the idea of landing at Narvik,to cut Germany's supplies of iron ore from Sweden, most of which went through the port. Unfortunately, they took so long and were so indiscreet in their plans, that Hitler pre-empted them, invading and occupying Denmark and southern Norway, and getting troops to Narvik first, able to resist the Allied landings when they finally happened. Though marginal in itself, the Narvik fiasco prompted a major debate in the British House of Commons, in which the government, although it won a final vote of confidence, did so with so small a majority that Chamberlain felt major changes had to be made. He decided it was time to form a national government, in coalition with Labour and the Liberals. That, though, proved impossible to pull off if he stayed on as Prime Minister. He stood down and, as the front runner to replace him, Halifax, said he wasn't prepared to take the post, it inevitably fell to Winston Churchill to shoulder the burden. Labour and the Liberals joined him. So it was together behind him, as depicted by David Low in a new cartoon, that they faced the next, far worse crisis that was about to hit Britain and France.

Martians invaded New Jersey on CBS Radio on 30th October, 1938, when Orson Welles' War of the Worlds delighted and confused a generation of Americans.  The fictional news bulletins sounded terrifyingly real, and many listeners missed the disclaimer stating it was just a play. But radio was a burgeoning medium, and Americans were still feeling the strain of the Great Depression, and feared becoming embroiled in World War II, so were perhaps pre-disposed to panic when their primary news source informed them aerial invasions and explosions were lighting up the skies. In this episode, Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how newspapers hyped up the resultant ‘mass panic' in order to take revenge on the radio industry; explain how the play's use of ‘fake news' broadcasts, mimicking newsman Herbert Morrison's dramatic Hindenburg coverage, was a surprisingly late addition; and consider why, in our world of A.I. deepfakes, its lessons resonate still… Further Reading: • 'The Infamous "War of the Worlds" Radio Broadcast Was a Magnificent Fluke' (Smithsonian, 2015): https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/infamous-war-worlds-radio-broadcast-was-magnificent-fluke-180955180/ • ''I had no idea I'd become a national event': Orson Welles on the mass hysteria of The War of the Worlds' (BBC Culture, 2023): https://www.bbc.co.uk/culture/article/20231027-behind-the-broadcast-orson-welles-on-the-mass-hysteria-of-the-war-of-the-worlds • 'The War of the Worlds: The Original Broadcast' (CBS, 1938): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=crPGFZiFjfs&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nj.com%2Flife-and-culture%2Ferry-2018%2F10%2F42845552865240%2Fwas-new-jersey-the-birthplace.html Love the show?

"The humanity!" Det var hvad journalisten Herbert Morrison råbte, da han var øjenvidne til Hindenburg katastrofen i 1937. En katastrofe fanget i chokerende billeder af adskillige kameraer. Men hvad var det egentlig, der gik galt? Denne film tager udgangspunkt i en af de mindre troværdige teorier: Hvad nu, hvad der var en sabotør ombord på Tysklands stolte luftskib? Kan kujonen findes, inden han har held i sit foretagende? George C. Scott er manden, der får dén opgave. http://www.ikassenshow.dk/2024/01/i-kassen-1023-hindenburg-1975.html

Oh the humanity! They called it "the Titanic of the sky”. It was the length of five Olympic sized swimming pools and would fly a few hundred metres above the ground transporting wealthy passengers from one side of the Atlantic Ocean to the other, and came complete with a dining room, a Sunday prayer service and even a smoking room.  But it was essentially a bunch of hydrogen-filled balloons floating in the sky that could catch fire the moment they were exposed to even a small spark...which is exactly what happened on May 6th 1937, when the Hindenburg's 63rd voyage from Frankfurt to New Jersey ended in disaster. The Hindenburg was the largest airship ever built and its crash remains one of the most famous aircraft disasters in history, thanks to the graphic footage of the explosion and the chilling radio commentary of reporter Herbert Morrison.

On 6 May 1937, four camera crews were on hand as the German Zeppelin airship the Hindenburg burst into flames. Separately, radio journalist Herbert Morrison was on the scene and his commentary of the event is forever associated with the tragedy. In this episode, I explore the Hindenburg disaster.

When journalist Herbert Morrison was sent to cover the arrival of the Hindenburg by Chicago radio station WLS, he thought it would be an exciting foray to see the possible future of air travel. But instead, his coverage would be the world's first recorded broadcast of an eyewitness account of a major world disaster. As if that weren't enough, Morrison and his sound engineer had to sneak the recording back to Chicago as Nazi Germany tried to circumvent its release.

Steve looks back to this day in 1937.  The airship Hindenburg burst into flames and came crashing down in New Jersey.  A moment caught in time by Herbert Morrison's eyewitness report for radio station WLS in Chicago.

In 1937, news reporter Herbert Morrison uttered a phrase which has endured for eight decades. Reacting to the Hindenburg fire, he was heard in footage of the disaster crying "Oh, the humanity!" The largest aircraft ever constructed to-date had caught fire on its maiden voyage. A luxurious zeppelin filled with hydrogen with skin made of the same stuff matchsticks are erupted in a giant fireball. 30 people died. Like Icarus flying too close to the sun, modern man had not taken enough care to consider the components for this flying machine. To say this thing which Morrison said is so interesting, though. Why wail and mourn humanity in a moment like this? Certainly, the loss of individual life was tragic and stomach-turning. But why cry aloud about humanity in the abstract? In our day, the consequences of modern man increasingly divorcing himself from the reality of our origins have the American Medical Association announcing last week that sex should be removed from birth certificates moving forward. Sex and gender are no longer meaningful distinctions between people. "Oh, the humanity!" But this is what happens when we become doggedly humanistic. We forget that we were created in the image of Almighty God, and that it is our Creator who establishes what is and is not meaningful by way of distinctions. God did not need to sink the Titanic anymore than he needed to set fire to the Hindenburg. And he will not need to bring ruin on us, but he might as a mercy to put us out of our collective misery. When man forgets God, his reason is turned to folly and he might as well say "Oh, the huge manatee" as "Oh, the humanity." What, after all, is the difference? When honest absurdities make more sense than very serious untruths peddled on a massive scale, we should eye on the lifeboats and parachutes and keep them close at-hand. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/garrett-ashley-mullet/message Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/garrett-ashley-mullet/support

The Hindenburg was an engineering masterpiece, an airship as large and as grand as the Titanic - and as doomed. On May 6, 1937, a young radio reporter named Herbert Morrison was on hand to record the Hindenburg's arrival at Lakehurst, New Jersey. Instead, Morrison helped radio to broadcast one of modern history's great disasters, as it suddenly unfolded in all its terrible glory. But even as Morrison's eyewitness report chronicled the end of one era, it signaled the beginning of another - an age in which electronic media would routinely report shocking events in the moment that they occurred. In addition to the story of the Hindenburg, this serves as a preview of Season 1.Broadcast audio courtesy of Marc Garabedian, Mark 56 RecordsContributors: Herbert MorrisonDr. Michael Biel, renowned broadcast historian.Mike Freedman, President of National Press Club, Professor at GWU –Don Hewitt, former CBS News producer (Garner Audio Archive)Aaron Brown, former CNN anchor(Garner Audio Archive)John Montone, former reporter for 1010 WINS Radio, New YorkSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

London, the Capital of world capitalism, a centre of global finance and a place of immense wealth and privilege, has an often unacknowledged red underbelly, stretching from Herbert Morrison in the 1930s to Sadiq Khan in the 2020s. In Red Metropolis (Repeater), Tribune culture editor and historian Owen Hatherley looks back at that tradition, and argues that a socialist, democratic, pluralist city could become a beacon of hope for the whole country and beyond. Hatherley is in conversation with Novara Media’s senior editor Ash Sarkar.Buy the book from us here: londonreviewbookbox.co.uk/collections/owen-hatherley See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Det er farvel til "Sporløs", "Vild med bøger" og "Danmarks bedste portrætmaler", når DR til nytår realiserer en omfattende spareplan. En lang række andre programmer og kanaler forsvinder også. Alt sammen som følge af sidste sommers medieaftale, som med krav om et smallere og mere fokuseret DR blev fulgt til dørs af daværende kulturminister Mette Bock med ordene "det er meningen, at vi skal have et andet DR". Men er resultatet så det, som ordførerne fra partierne bag medieaftalen ønskede? Mediebosser skal registreres: Chefredaktører og andre mediechefer har så meget magt og indflydelse, at de skal deklarere deres løn og interesser i et nyt register. Forslaget kommer fra Jens Jonatan Sten, chefredaktør på den socialdemokratiske netavis "Pio". Han mener, at mediebranchen er "et lukket land", og det skal være slut med, at chefredaktørerne i for eksempel "Presselogen" på TV2 News får lov til at kontrollere sig selv. Udstillingsvinduer med podcast: Selv om flere og flere selv vælger, hvad de vil høre og hvornår, tyder intet på, at det snart er slut med "gammeldags" flowradio. De mest populære podcast er produceret som radioprogrammer, og det har derfor stor betydning at kunne udstille dem på app's, FM og DAB, siger cheferne for taleradioerne P1, Radio4 og Loud. Medieforsker Peter Niegel forklarer og perspektiverer. Radioklassiker: Det satte nye standarder for reportage i radioen, da journalist Herbert Morrison i 1937 med følelserne udenpå tøjet fortalte sine lyttere om luftskibet "Hindenburgs" forlis.

1936 geht das damals weltgrößte Luftschiff der Welt "Hindenburg" in Betrieb. Sie fährt 63 mal über den Atlantik, nach Rio de Janeiro und New York. Am 6. Mai 1937 jedoch kommt es zur Katastrophe, als sich der Wasserstoff im hinteren Teil des Luftschiffs entzündet. 35 Menschen sterben. Die Live-Reportage von Herbert Morrison wurde weltberühmt.

On May 6, 1937, the Hindenburg erupted into flames while docking at a New Jersey air field. Some visual footage of the catastrophe has survived, but the most vivid testimony comes from Herbert Morrison, whose voice recording for a Chicago radio station endures in the words “oh the humanity.” Try thinking these words without hearing his voice. Ödere couldn’t get them out of his head, so he threw himself headlong into the history of blimps and the radio and, typically, ends up wondering what actually happens when a voice is transmitted through the sky and where it ends up. This episode’s etymological excursion features the word “blimp,” which remains shrouded in mystery and conjecture. Welcome to World of Blimps.

Hindenburg Crash, 05/06/1937 To watch the original video please visit Public Access America https://youtu.be/oii2uyPWq5s The Hindenburg disaster occurred on May 6, 1937, as the German passenger airship LZ 129 Hindenburg caught fire and was destroyed during its attempt to dock with its mooring mast at Naval Air Station Lakehurst in Manchester Township, New Jersey, United States. Of the 97 people on board (36 passengers and 61 crewmen), there were 35 fatalities (13 passengers and 22 crewmen). One worker on the ground was also killed, making a total of 36 fatalities. The disaster was the subject of spectacular newsreel coverage, photographs, and Herbert Morrison's recorded radio eyewitness reports from the landing field, which were broadcast the next day. A variety of hypotheses have been put forward for both the cause of ignition and the initial fuel for the ensuing fire. The incident shattered public confidence in the giant, passenger-carrying rigid airship and marked the abrupt end of the airship era. The airship was hours behind schedule when she passed over Boston on the morning of May 6, and her landing at Lakehurst was expected to be further delayed because of afternoon thunderstorms. Advised of the poor weather conditions at Lakehurst, Captain Max Pruss charted a course over Manhattan Island, causing a public spectacle as people rushed out into the street to catch sight of the airship. After passing over the field at 4:00 p.m., Captain Pruss took passengers on a tour over the seasides of New Jersey while waiting for the weather to clear. After finally being notified at 6:22 p.m. that the storms had passed, Pruss directed the airship back to Lakehurst to make its landing almost half a day late. However, as this would leave much less time than anticipated to service and prepare the airship for its scheduled departure back to Europe, the public was informed that they would not be permitted at the mooring location or be able to visit aboard the Hindenburg during its stay in port.

Den 6 maj 1937 fattade luftskeppet Hindenburg eld då det var på väg att landa utanför New York. Händelsen har blivit historisk inte bara för själva olyckan, utan även för de bilder och det radioreferat som den amerikanska radioreportern Herbert Morrison spelade in. 1962 sände Sveriges Radio programmet "Resans slut och slutet på en epok" 25 år efter katastrofen där bland annat Morrison berättar om olyckan. Programet leds av Manne Berggren. Sänt: 1962-05-06
