Is Nazi brutality particularly well known in the US because of the US's Jewish population?

In a sense I suppose. Here in the states there is the freedom of speech and the free press. It is not an event that people want, particularly the Jews, to be forgotten, -and shouldn't be- in my opinion. So wouldn't it be better documented in clarity by the very victims themselves, the brutality of their captors? I wouldn't say it is a control of media but rather the utilization of the publishing medium in order to tell to the rest of the unknowing world of their experiences.

Nazi brutality is very well known because this was a singular event in 20s century Europe, with no analog (in Europe). It is well known also in England and Poland, the countries with small Jewish population. (I mean that Poland has negligible Jewish population AFTER the Holocaust). And in France and in Yugoslavia. It is also well-known and well remembered in the countries of former Soviet Union, where the remaining Jewish population was smaller that in the US, and no sane person would say that "Jews controlled the media" in the former Soviet Union.
