He very definitely was a politician starting in mid 1920s as a gauleiter through to being Minister of Propaganda throughout the years the Nazis were in power. One might draw a distinction in that he was not elected by the people but there are modern western governments that have politicians who are not elected by the people, both my own country and modern Germany included.
Moving on:
I have to say that I see it more than a little in the way of it being poetic justice that the rights holders of the diaries of an immoral politician who destroyed the rights of journalism and literature, are being circumvented by a claim of the moral rights of a free society.
