Were there any scandals on Henry Ford?

Answer 1

While Ford was a brilliant innovator and generally a good man, it should be noted that he was an anti semitist when it came to people of Jewish faith. He sponsored articles in papers that attacked the Jewish populace and their culture. He was awarded Verdienstkreutz Deutscher Adler, one of the highest civilian awards by the German Government which at the time was the Nazi regime. The award was in recognition of Ford's pioneering achievements in the automotive industry however it is believed that Ford's Anti semitism also factored into the eqaution. This is not to say that Ford was a bad person. He was a good man who had his evils as do we all.
