Saul Goldman (Southern Victory)

Saul Goldman is Director of Propaganda for the Confederate States.

In the early 1920s Goldman, a Jew, owned and operated a radio station. He allowed the Freedom Party to use his facilities for speechmaking, thus allowing Jake Featherston's message to reach every corner of the country. A grateful Featherston made Goldman chief of the party's propaganda (a position Jake himself had held very early on) and then, after his election to the Presidency, of the entire country. Goldman's duties included writing radio news reports and compiling newsreel clips. These reports and clips were the only reports and clips that could be played in their respective media anywhere in the CS.

Goldman's news reports were highly favorable to Jake Feathertstn and the Freedom Party as well as the CS and its Entente allies. Goldman's office also demonized the United States and its Central Powers allies, blacks, aristocrats (excluding, of course, Nathan Bedford Forrest III), and, before the death of Huey Long, the state of Louisianna. During the Second Great War, Goldman grossly exaggerated Confederate military successes and played down setbacks to an equal extent.

In 1942, when US divebombers raided Richmond and destroyed the Gray House, Goldman may well have saved Featherston's life by convincing him to get to a bomb shelter.
