Die Rolle der Medien - Austausch in der Lichtburg Essen

In the organizer's words:

Long before there were likes and followers, people were already using the media to shape - or manipulate - opinions. An extreme example: Joseph Goebbels, Minister of Propaganda, who deliberately used the media to influence society.

How did he manage this? How do politicians do it today? How does it affect our democratic society?
