Pierre John Huss (
1903-
1966(External Link
)) was a journalist and author, best known as a
war correspondent during
World War II.
Huss was for many years chief
International News Service (INS) correspondent in Berlin. He was part of an overseas reporting staff assembled by
Edward R. Murrow in March 1938 for what was the first in what became the daily
CBS World News Roundup broadcasts.
He interviewed
Adolf Hitler multiple times during the
1930s and 1940s, and wrote
Heil! And Farewell: The Foe We Face in
1942, the same year he won a
National Headliner Award.
Huss was president of the
United Nations Correspondents Association in 1962. He and
George Carpozi, Jr. cowrote
Red Spies in the UN, published in 1965.
Example of his reporting
As an INS correspondent based at the
Allied Forces Headquarters in
North Africa, Huss wrote the following in July 1943, after news of
Mussolini's fall from power:
» The battle spirit of
Allied Forces in Sicily soared today at news of Premier Mussolini's resignation. The immediate consequences of Mussolini's fall, after 20 years of dictatorship, undoubtedly will be a nosedive in the morale of
Italian fighting forces.
Everything points to the fact that Mussolini lately saw the
handwriting on the wall and that, in desperation, he laid his case before Hitler last Monday [July19] after sensing the growing hostility toward him and
Fascism on the part of the
Italian people and
the crown.
» But Hitler, unlike
Il Duce, probably will ride the storm to the bitter end, wildly spilling oceans of blood in
occupied countries and even in the
Reich itself, and
kill himself rather than follow Mussolini's example and resign.
