Sažetak
The paper analyses the formation of the Ustasha propaganda apparatus in 1941, based on documents from the Croatian State Archives and daily press of the Independent State of Croatia. Special emphasis is given to the organisation and tasks of the Croatian Reporting Service (HIS) and the Croatian Information Bureau (HDU) Croatia, two government agencies which played a significant role in the organisation of work in the editorial offices of the Independent State of Croatia (the NDH). A detailed account is given of HIS and HDU Croatia services, as well as of the way in which the information was filtered in the newsletters of government agencies, censored and published in the NDH press with the prior authorisation by the Director General. The paper addresses the importance of Hrvatski narod, the main political daily in the NDH, the organisation and operation of whose editorial office served the Ustasha authorities as a template for other newspaper agencies. A significant part of the paper looks into the organisation of foreign bureaus and the foreign policy section of Hrvatski narod, which emphasises the dependent position of the NDH in relation to the Axis.
