Graham's message caught fire in the 1950s, after he was heavily promoted nationwide by William Randolph Heart's newspapers in connection with a [[Los Angeles Crusade, 1949|Crusade that Graham held in Los Angeles]]. The mass-circulation national magazines (much more important in those days than today), including ''Life,'' ''Time'', ''Look,'' and ''Newsweek'' put Graham on their covers a dozen times. Advertising experts gave Graham awards two years in a row for being the most publicized person in America.  In the era of [[Jim Crow]], Graham reached across racial lines and sought integrated audiences.
