Solution

The correct option is B Paul von Hindenburg
Franz von Papen was appointed the Chancellor in May 1932 and Paul von Hindenburg was appointed president. A coalition was also formed between the two. This did not last for long. This was because a group of wealthy businessmen persuaded President Hindenburg to invite Hitler to be Chancellor. After Hitler accepted, the Nazi Party was able to make use of the state-owned mass media communication apparatus like the press and radio to campaign for their own purposes.
