Journalist Liberal Propaganda Titt Elizabeth Masterman
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the enigmatic figure of Sir Tom Titt, better known as Charles Frederick Gurney Masterman (1876-1927), a British Liberal Party politician and journalist of great historical significance. Masterman's distinguished lineage includes a notable connection to Elizabeth Fry, his great aunt, who was a renowned social reformer and philanthropist. Masterman's political career began in earnest when he was appointed as the Parliamentary Secretary to the Ministry of Information during World War One. In this role, he became the head of British propaganda, employing innovative techniques to bolster morale and sway public opinion both at home and abroad. His efforts proved instrumental in shaping the narrative of the war and maintaining the British public's support for the conflict. As a journalist, Masterman was a prolific writer and editor, contributing to various publications such as the "Nation" and the "Manchester Guardian." His insightful commentary on political and social issues earned him a reputation as a thought leader and influential voice in British politics. Despite his accomplishments, Masterman's tenure in politics was not without controversy. His role in the propaganda campaign during World War One raised ethical questions, and his involvement in the infamous "Zinoviev Letter" scandal damaged his political reputation. Nevertheless, Masterman's contributions to British politics and journalism remain noteworthy, making this photograph a valuable historical record.
