Current source

TIME, "Truth Behind the Myth of American Ignorance on the Holocaust" (reproduced by NJ Dept. of Education), citing the USHMM "Americans and the Holocaust" exhibition

https://www.nj.gov/education/holocaust/curr/materials/docs/Holocaust_HighSchool_Unit_Two_Accompanying_Literature_TruthBehindTheMythOfAmericanIgnoranceOnTheHolocaust.pdf

“one item that's part of the USHMM exhibition shows public opinion polls demonstrating that while half of U.S. respondents in 1943 thought the fact that 2 million Jewish Europeans had been murdered was just a rumor, by 1944 about three-quarters believed concentration camps were really part of the Nazi plan”
