Subway Propaganda
People have used propaganda, in many forms, to convince people into believing in their message for various reasons. One example is Subway's
advertisements and commercials. Subway is known for allowing customers to choose what goes on their sandwiches from their selection of bread,
meats, cheese, and vegetables. In several of Subway's commercials, one of their employees is making a sandwich for a customer. During these
commercials, the customer or employee always emphasizes how Subway's sandwiches are made fresh every day, and then their commercials end with
their widely–known slogan, "Subway, eat fresh." In these commercials, Subway keeps mentioning the use of fresh ingredients in their commercials
and even putting the word "fresh" in their own slogan. As a result, Subway has millions of people that believe Subway's food is actually fresh. But
according to Subway's ingredient list, the restaurant uses preservatives to make the product last longer. Subway is one of many fast food chains that use
propaganda in order to make people believe that their restaurant's food is fresh. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

Propaganda Propaganda Analysis
Soon after the tragic and devastating attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1942 by the Japanese Empire, America was quick to retaliate and went
in with full force on the offense against our aggressors. About 50 million men were drafted into the armed forces, forcing them to leave their homes
and family behind. This especially caused adverse effects to the job market. Jobs and tasks still needed to be continued while the war was in effect,
so women, kids, and those people unable to qualify for military service had to step in. In order to achieve this goal, propaganda was utilized to target
specific groups by distorting the mind into believing it's a duty that must be accomplished. More specifically, we will analyze a specific propaganda
poster created and published by the RCA Manufacturing Company in the year 1942. The propaganda poster displays the following context in bold and

Propaganda Analysis
The techniques used to persuade the citizens contain very simple techniques of propaganda; plain folks and bandwagon are the two main ones. These
types of propaganda are very useful and very easily caught on by the masses. What I mean by that is that everyone can either relate to the propaganda
being used or have some sort of understanding of it. This by far is probably the most easiest and inexpensive propaganda to use as well as being simple
with not much time to spend on producing in whatever way or form you decide to place it or put out.
The main things that hook are in the names themselves, bandwagon meaning; to follow or get something because everyone else is. Plain folks
being what the name is, persuades you to feel that whatever characters in the propaganda are selling are just like you and are easily relatable to
your life. To me every propaganda bad or good always has either plain folks or bandwagon. The other types of propaganda used are more flashy and
easier to spot to the average person because of the fact that it may be too pushy or extra with what they are trying to sell you. Glittering generalities
is one, only using very big grand words to provoke an emotional appeal attracting all audiences because of the vagueness of the words and promotion.

Media Propaganda
Media propaganda
Propaganda is a form of communication that is aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position.
As opposed to impartially providing information, propaganda, in its most basic sense, presents information primarily to influence an audience.
Propaganda often presents facts selectively (thus possibly lying by omission) to encourage a particular synthesis, or uses loaded messages to produce
an emotional rather than rational response to the information presented. The desired result is a change of the attitude toward the subject in the target
audience to further a political agenda. Propaganda can be used as a form of political warfare.

The Creel Commission provided themes for speeches by "four–minute men" at public functions, and also encouraged censorship of the American press.

The war propaganda campaign of Lippmann and Bernays produced within six months such an intense anti–German hysteria as to permanently impress
American business (and Adolf Hitler, among others) with the potential of large–scale propaganda to control public opinion. Bernays coined the terms
"group mind" and "engineering consent", important concepts in practical propaganda work. The file Century of the Self by Adam Curtis documents the
immense influence of these ideas on public relations and politics throughout the last century.
The current public relations industry is a direct outgrowth of Lippmann's and Bernays' work and is still used extensively by the United States
government. For the first half of the 20th century Bernays and Lippmann themselves ran a very successful public relations firm. World saw continued

American Propaganda
Propaganda is information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote a political cause or point of view. It can be of a positive or
negative nature, but its overall aim is to influence those viewing it and hopefully persuade them to share the propaganda's creator's point of view.
When America joined the War in 1941, after remaining neutral and determined not to get involved for two years, a great amount ofpropaganda was
produced and displayed to the American citizens. This propaganda was produced in many different forms, one of which was using American

This shows us that advertisements being used as forms of propaganda were being produced for essentially the entire duration of America's

produced and spread as soon as possible and advertisements of different companies were one of the first forms of media to be used do so. And by
using adverts, they could use both images and written words to influence people. Using emotive language would have been very effective in persuading

observation – just by looking at an image you are taking it in; you do not need to read. And by already creating an image for you, you immediately see

What Is Propaganda In Ww1
Propaganda was a predominant and effective weapon of warfare during WW1 (1914–1918) and to a very large extent; it influenced the involvement of
civilians in several movements of the war. There were several elements, both stylistic and technical, incorporated within the propaganda, which created
conceptions of nationalism and anti–national sentiment and involved different demographics such as North Americans and women. All these factors
contributed to the enormity of war and increased the extent of people who participated in the war, whether it was in the trenches at front lines or in
their towns at the home front.

Images of women were often exploited in wartime propaganda, as they were romanticized and significant female figures. An example is England's
image of Britannia, a Romanesque warrior, who encouraged men to fight for their country and protect their women and children (Welch D, Propaganda
for Patriotism and Nationalism, 2014). This information substantiates with Jo Fox in her article, Women in World War One Propaganda (2014), as she
says "Women served as the embodiment of the nation: MГЁre–Patrie, Marianne, 'the spirit of Australia', Mother Russia, 'Liberty', and Britannia all took
the female form, appearing as both demure and combative." German and French propaganda on postcards romanticized war and women, depicting
soldiers thinking of their loved ones while at war and helped them envisage heroic returns (McCallum, 1996, pg.141). Women were used as a tool
of propaganda in WW1, their involvement due to propaganda issued was a preponderant factor since women had partial support of the war. More
than 175 000 women were involved in the industrial activity of the war because of campaigns such as the "Register of Women for War Service" as

maintaining his corruption of power. The pervasive use of propaganda by the Nazis is largely responsible for the word "propaganda" itself acquiring its

War is peace can be interpreted as the country is fighting and people within the country are on the same side, which furthers the party's uncontested
power. Nobody questions their government while a war. By keeping the masses believing that a constant war is being waged, the government will
have a way of controlling the population. War elicits great patriotism and devotion to one's country; it also promotes sacrifice and giving to the
community over oneself. So, if there is constant war, the people are constantly blindly pledging devotion to their government. This keeps the people
from seeing the large picture and keeps the government in control, and therefore, peaceful. Ignorance is strength can be explained as, if people
remain ignorant, they will not question the Party hence making the country "stronger." When the government has no on questioning or looking at
them they are free to do what they want. Big Brother implements this by creating Newpeak, which eradicates most words from existence. Words
such as rebellion were taken out in hopes that people would forget what it means and stop practicing it. Freedom is slavery can be described as, if

Propaganda is used to promote a certain cause to a mass audience through mass media. Propaganda can be used to spread information for good or bad
reasons and has been known to do both. The use of propaganda for bad reasons has caused many people to view it as a deceitful word, one that
stretches the truth and blows things out of proportion to gain support––even though that is not always the case. For example, propaganda likes to use
testimonials, glittering generalities, card stacking, and other techniques to present information in the best and most biased light (Ogelsbee, n.d.).
The article "Defining Propaganda"(n.d.) explains that propaganda can spread its message through a variety of mediums such as pictures, drawings,
exhibits, speeches, parades, songs, and so forth. It can present itself in such a way that the audience won't even realize what it is, which can help
with its effectiveness. Basically, this means "propaganda can be concealed or open." It can also weasel its way into your life and leave a lasting
emotional effect by using "a combination of emotional and logical appeals" (Defining Propaganda, n.d.). Propaganda typically appeals to emotion

Shortly after their birth, Napoleon took the young puppies from the farm dogs in order to raise them personally. He completely isolated them from the

these articles are often arrested and imprisoned. Iran also has placed several restrictions on high speed internet in an effort to filter out Western
influence. Iranian connection speeds were reduced to 128KB per second, making it impossible to receive fast broadband packages. This makes it

Information in WWII, argued that "a clear–cut definition of propaganda" is not only impossible, it is also highly undesirable (1948, p. 375). He
believed that posing any types of limitation will harm the understanding of the term. Since propaganda changes in regard to context and timing in
which it occurs, different countries and different time periods would experience different types of propaganda. Thus, propaganda occurring in a given
timeframe in a given country will not necessarily contain a propaganda message in the eyes of a neighboring country, for instance. This notion clarifies

sell products, whether the "products" are a brand of toothpaste, a candidate for office, or a particular political viewpoint." (The Longman Writer
McClintock's Essay Pg. 232). There are seven main types of propaganda, Name Calling, Glittering Generalities, Transfer, Testimonial, Plain Folks,
Card Stacking, and Bandwagon. Since its first use, most people when they hear propaganda, think only about political ads but that is not all that
propaganda is used for. "Although propaganda may seem relevant only in the political arena, the concept can be applied fruitfully to the way products
and ideas are sold in advertising." (The Longman Writer McClintock's Essay Pg. 232) Two very good examples of using propaganda techniques are a
State Farm commercial, and a Farmers advertisement. The State Farm ad is a beautifully done, two minute long commercial that is meant to pull on
the heart string of the watcher with a technique such as Plain Folks. The farmers advertisement on the other hand is a think out of the box comical

"forgiveness" for Sydney's "side of the family" which majorly reflects how strong his support his. The aunt clearly wants nothing to do with Sydney
and treats it as a disowning situation. "Mathew at thirty–three was like a restless young god, where one boy's death and another man's agony kept him
glowing under a false sun." (150) He is referred to here as a "god" because he is over so much support, it treats him as immortal. Framing Sydney
for "one boy's death" is what he used to get this support. He is kept "glowing" or supported under the "false sun" which is the fabrication that
Sydney actually committed a crime. For this, he continues to glow under Sydney's "agony", so when Sydney suffers, Mathew gains more power. It is
further indicated that Mathew is well supported when Mathew "Stood tall at the community centre; he rose above anyone else there, because of the
death of a child he used to beat." (150) Mathew Pitt is now the subject of woe, as he "stood tall at the community centre" indicating the amount of
support that he has behind him. In an ironic fashion, it is implied that Mathew did not care about Trenton, because he was once a "child he used to

The Argument Of Propaganda And Propaganda Techniques
Crowd psychology is the fundamental idea behind the term propaganda. One of the most successful public relations influencers Edward Bernays wrote
in his book "Propaganda". "If we understand the mechanisms and the motives of the group mind, it is now possible to control and regiment the masses
according to our will without them knowing it." Many argue that propaganda is unethical due to the fact that it is a manipulation and control of the
group mind. In this paper, I will be studying what makes propaganda ethical and compare the effective propaganda techniques that have been used in
some of the most recent campaigns. Specifically, focusing on public relations campaigns in such as Always, Under Armour, and Dove" campaigns that

I believe some companies genuinely have a caring culture and they carry themselves with ethics. It is not only about the business side of things but
actually how they can impact the humanity within the business. Also, consumers want to make a statement when they purchase a product or item.
Purchasing or not purchasing is often the bigger statement that consumers are usually able to make. With such a huge communication platform it is
very difficult to do the wrong thing and not be highlighted in the media. So I believe companies are looking more into creating positive and healthy
reinforcements in their brands.
One of the most effective advertisement campaigns of 2016 according to "WARC 100" was one paid for by Always for women. The main initiative
of this campaign was to change the stereotype of the saying "Like a girl". There is a certain stereotype that is portrayed in media and in Emojis which
are the one the favorite ways of communication within females in present time. The Always campaign went on to win a UN award for impact on
Women 's empowerment and over one million shares on the internet.
There were a few elements of this campaign that Always was able to capitalize on. One thing they were precise in reaching their target audience. They

Holocaust Propaganda
Disguising Nazi Intentions Propaganda and media have always been very important in convincing the public to agree with their government. Leaders
have usually used propaganda and media in common everyday matters, not just politics. In today's age it is easier to find out if information is true or
not because of all the technology (which also leaves more room for more false reports.) Today we have Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat; the media list
available to the public is almost infinite. It has not always been like that though; people have not always had smart phones and the internet to get

Denying the Holocaust and misrepresentation of facts is a form of antisemitism. Holocaust deniers ignore the overwhelming obvious evidence of
the mass murders that occurred. They say the Holocaust is a myth, invented by the Allies, the Soviet communists, and the Jews for their own ends.
Some deniers argue that since there was no written documentation of the killings, that the Holocaust itself was a hoax. They reject all evidence
submitted at the Nuremburg Trials(Deniers). The Nuremburg Trials were held in Nuremburg, Germany to bring Nazi criminals to justice. The
defendants were convicted between 1943 and 1945, in a series of thirteen trials(History). Some people even go as far to say that the "few" Jews
who died were from natural causes or being killed for committing a real crime. Deniers say the number of between 5.1 and 6 million Jews killed in
the Holocaust were exaggerated. Some say the Nazis didn't use gas chambers to kill Jews. (Deniers) There is tons and tons of evidence to prove these
deniers wrong. One example is on June 25, 1943, the brand–new gas chamber/crematory 3 opens at Auschwitz. With this new killing facility being
completed, the four current crematories at Auschwitz now had a death rate of 4,756 bodies every day

Examples Of Propaganda In 1984
Propaganda is a word for the distribution of information that reflects the views and interests of those advocating such information. In other words, if the
government is the source of the information, it is probably pro–government. Propaganda manipulates you by directing the aggression that would
normally be directed at them, to another entity or group, such as Hitler blaming the Jews for Germany's poor economy. It can also work to destroy the
very logic that could be used to resist it, such as claiming that two plus two is five. Propaganda also tries to silence or discourage any of those who
oppose it. There are ways to resist propaganda, such as researching what is being told to you, in an attempt to find the truth about what is being said, ...

The "party" has every citizen in Oceania shout at a telescreen with Goldstein's face on it for 2 minutes every day. The Ingsoc Party encourages belief
in Goldstein and his resistance, so that they can blame acts of sabotage and any disloyalty among party members on him. An example of this sort of
blame–shifting today, is the notion that school shootings are caused by video game violence. Kentucky governor Matt Bevin has been quoted
saying, "guns are not the problem." Devin follows up by saying that video games "have desensitized people to the value of human life." These
government officials are attempting to divert frustration from their perceived lack of legislative progress to video game companies. The way for you
to resist this form of propaganda is to stay informed instead of listening to what others say and immediately believing it. If you looked up studies

Propaganda not presents us with information and news but it also can broaden our knowledge of certain topics. Newspaper and news on the
television are both great examples of this because, yes, they could be bias but they also inform us about what is going on in the world currently and
can present us with interesting trends that we may want to follow. Without propaganda society would not know about some events that affect them or
the rest of the world such as natural disasters and wars. Without propaganda citizens of all over the world would be secluded from the popular and hip
ideas, although those ideas would never have been made popular because there was no one to see and follow the trend. Therefore making every place in

Propaganda And The World Of Doublespeak
The use of propaganda and double–speaking have a long history, going back to the ancient societies. Propaganda and doublespeak are the use of verbal
exchange to have an effect on the emotions, attitudes, and opinions of human beings. To try to get them to accept a particular political, religious, or
financial point of view, or even to start a war. It is careful manipulation of the opinions of the societies mostly by their government. In the effort to
control the nation 's thought process, the government has stemmed to using mass propaganda for selling a war.

During World War II, governments would create propaganda in hopes of inspiring or convincing citizens in their country to make a contribution to
the war effort. Most of the propaganda was related to the need of the factory workers in the factories and the factories needed as many people as
possible to help make materials necessary for the war. Therefore, the techniques used to persuade their citizens to join the war movement was through
different fonts, pop of colors, and images to catch the reader's eyes. The government used different fonts in attempt to give a slogan that would resonate

This enables the audience to look at the colors, then realize the words and comprehend their meaning. The government intended to make certain
words stand out as their citizens read the propaganda so they could look at the vibrant colored words to convince them to take action. Then, citizens
would consider helping their country during the war and actually go work in the factories to make necessities for the war. While citizens think the
government appreciates their efforts, the materials given during war are important to win the war. Lastly, when images are used in the propaganda, it
helps the audience understand what the government needs from their citizens to be part of the war effort. While vibrant colored words emphasize
specific words, images present concepts that can not be told in a few words. These images can inspire citizens through the use of colors or making
certain objects bigger than it really is in real life. Therefore, it would bring emphasis on who is needed or what is need from the citizens that the

Propaganda Vs Persuasion
If you were to walk down the street and survey people on the difference between propaganda and persuasion, most people would probably ask
themselves, "Is there really a difference between the two? Aren't they synonymous?" This response wouldn't be unheard of because the two terms are
similar in nature at first glance. Both terms describe a tactic in which people try to manipulate their audience into choosing their side of an issue.
However, upon closer inspection, it is clear that the definitions of propaganda and persuasion have slight differences that set the two apart from one
another. It is important to note these distinctions because they help decipher more accurately the kind of information sent, leading to better

However, these two terms differ slightly when it comes to taking into account how people perceive their intended purposes. Persuasion relies on
emotional, moral, and logical appeals to convey a message, without relying too heavily on any one of these. It likes to strike a nice balance between
the three so that the message seems well rounded and cohesive. Persuasion is also " more concerned with the mutual benefit of both the persuader
and those being persuaded" (Difference, n.d.). Propaganda relies heavily on emotional appeal alone because propaganda is typically used to convey
a message in a short amount of time, and the quickest and easiest way to get somebody to remember something is by leaving an emotional impact.
Propaganda doesn't take into account the consequences of its message. This is why it can be said, "the aim of propaganda is only to cater to the needs

Propaganda is used as a powerful tool in order to persuade and manipulate the general public into believing in another's opinion. This device is mainly
used by the government to promote warfare, political figures, and specific ideals. However, propaganda is not always used for positive feedback. This
form of advertisement can enlist fear, suppress, and brainwash the population. In the novel 1984, propaganda is used in this manner of negativity. A few
examples of this form of publicity is the language of Newspeak, the Party's slogan, and the two–minute hate. Nevertheless, the government conveys
information through propaganda because it is a more subliminal way to get into one's conscious. If a body of government orders someone to shape a

During the daily hate sessions, crowds join together into a frenzy to despise Emmanuel Goldstein, the leader of the supposed Brotherhood (the
rebellious group against the Party). During this hate, people "...were leaping up and down in their places and shouting at the tops of their voices in
an effort to drown the maddening bleating voice that came from the screen" (Orwell 14). It acted as a way to shift tension and hatred away from the
society of Oceania itself and force it onto someone else. The Party also started to teach this concept to children through, "...careful early conditioning,
by games and cold water, by the rubbish that was dinned into them at school and in the Spies and the Youth League, by lectures, parades, songs,
slogans, and martial music, the natural feeling had been driven out of them" (Orwell 67). The natural feeling discussed is compassion, morals, and
overall the childhood itself. These early development stages of life are crucial, and whatever someone says, children will listen since they have not yet

In the wide spectrum of politics, there are many manipulative tools that can be used to persuade an audience. In communist countries, such as Russia,
government leaders use propaganda to convince their citizens to believe their actions are right. Just like in Animal Farm by George Orwell, Squealer
consistently spreads propaganda to the other animals throughout the book. Similarly, Frank Luntz, a pollster and political consultant, often spreads his
opinionated thoughts to the public. Using propaganda as a tool to influence the masses is not justifiable because it causes the masses to only hear one

"Keep Calm and Carry on." The first two were displayed around the streets of Britain. The final was only to be released if Germany invaded Britain,

The expression "Keep Calm and Carry on" was designed to reassure the viewer that if they maintain their composure, that they can be safe once
more. The propaganda was only to be released if Germany invaded Britain by land. When one's native country is invaded, one clearly would feel
unsafe. With outside forces, patrolling your town, and battling in the distance it is clearly within an individual's right mind to feel insecure, and
unsafe. The propaganda's word choice worked to dull some of the worries of the individuals at risk. The choice to use "Keep Calm and Carry on"
is a command to continue with a calmed attitude and to proceed with their intended plan. The section of the phrase "Keep Calm" assumes that the
individual is already remaining calm, which suggests to the reader that the crown expects them to be amicable and mellow. The next section "Carry
on" works to remind the general person reading the piece of propaganda that it is possible to move ahead with their dreams and future plans. The
phrase in its entirety works by assuming the viewer is already calm, and to move on to the next step which is carrying on. It mollifies the fear that
should be instated in its population. This propaganda piece "Keep Calm and Carry on" was designed with the purpose to help its country's citizens feel

The context of the propaganda piece is to spark interest in enlisting with the United States army. However, Flagg creates Uncle Sam in a unique
way to not only address the clustered population of young soldiers but to directly encode the importance of the individual. The poster has the word
"YOU" in bolded and slightly bigger letters. When one looks at the parts of the poster that are unique, one might look at the word "YOU" and
straight towards the index finger pointed at the individual. This use of linear perspective that Flagg creates is fundamental to the message of the
poster. If one were to draw lines from any part of the poster, it would lead to the index finger, revealing the important placement of the finger in the
middle of the poster. Additionally, the use of lithographs, or authorized copy of an original work, was ubiquitous in the United States as higher
quality copy images of Uncle Sam were created consistently at a high rate. This recurring image that was engraved in the minds of Americans
exposed to newspapers and media outlets can identify Flagg's poster as a symbol of wartime and demand for soldiers. Flagg's goal of building this

Subway Propaganda

  • 1. Subway Propaganda People have used propaganda, in many forms, to convince people into believing in their message for various reasons. One example is Subway's advertisements and commercials. Subway is known for allowing customers to choose what goes on their sandwiches from their selection of bread, meats, cheese, and vegetables. In several of Subway's commercials, one of their employees is making a sandwich for a customer. During these commercials, the customer or employee always emphasizes how Subway's sandwiches are made fresh every day, and then their commercials end with their widely–known slogan, "Subway, eat fresh." In these commercials, Subway keeps mentioning the use of fresh ingredients in their commercials and even putting the word "fresh" in their own slogan. As a result, Subway has millions of people that believe Subway's food is actually fresh. But according to Subway's ingredient list, the restaurant uses preservatives to make the product last longer. Subway is one of many fast food chains that use propaganda in order to make people believe that their restaurant's food is fresh. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... "The terms of the Treaty of Versailles ordered that Germany had to pay huge sums in reparations to the Allies. In 1921, as Germany could not pay, French and Belgian troops invaded and occupied the Ruhr to take goods and raw materials." (Holocaust Explained)14 Due to the terms of the Treaty of Versailles, Germany had to pay reparations as well as debts from the war to those who fought for Germany. Due to the money the country owed, inflation occurred and money became useless in Germany. Businesses became bankrupt and millions of Germans were unemployed.

  • 2. Propaganda Propaganda Analysis Soon after the tragic and devastating attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1942 by the Japanese Empire, America was quick to retaliate and went in with full force on the offense against our aggressors. About 50 million men were drafted into the armed forces, forcing them to leave their homes and family behind. This especially caused adverse effects to the job market. Jobs and tasks still needed to be continued while the war was in effect, so women, kids, and those people unable to qualify for military service had to step in. In order to achieve this goal, propaganda was utilized to target specific groups by distorting the mind into believing it's a duty that must be accomplished. More specifically, we will analyze a specific propaganda poster created and published by the RCA Manufacturing Company in the year 1942. The propaganda poster displays the following context in bold and conspicuous lettering, " United we stand, Divided we fall: Beat The Promise." Furthermore, we are able ...

Fleming's article "Understanding Propaganda From a General Semantics Perspective."The glittering generality technique can be recognized in the background and initial phrase from the poster, " United we stand, Divided we fall: Beat the Promise." With these words in mind, we can begin applying the big six principles of general semantics mentioned also in Flemings article. Non–Identity is utilized with the use of the words "United" and "Divided", by increasing the motivation to work as a team. Even though the phrase does not represent the real underlying meaning of the poster,which is to surpass the original established quota. Non–allness begins to become more noticeable as years pass, factory workers felt it was their duty to work hard and increase production, no questions were asked. Conclusively, the blue collar workers subconsciously accepted to work ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 3. Propaganda Analysis The techniques used to persuade the citizens contain very simple techniques of propaganda; plain folks and bandwagon are the two main ones. These types of propaganda are very useful and very easily caught on by the masses. What I mean by that is that everyone can either relate to the propaganda being used or have some sort of understanding of it. This by far is probably the most easiest and inexpensive propaganda to use as well as being simple with not much time to spend on producing in whatever way or form you decide to place it or put out. The main things that hook are in the names themselves, bandwagon meaning; to follow or get something because everyone else is. Plain folks being what the name is, persuades you to feel that whatever characters in the propaganda are selling are just like you and are easily relatable to your life. To me every propaganda bad or good always has either plain folks or bandwagon. The other types of propaganda used are more flashy and easier to spot to the average person because of the fact that it may be too pushy or extra with what they are trying to sell you. Glittering generalities is one, only using very big grand words to provoke an emotional appeal attracting all audiences because of the vagueness of the words and promotion. Doing this by using only everything with positive feeling and fronts leaving gaps to show you that it is not 100 percent effective or proven in whatever case the propaganda is used in. ...

  • 4. Media Propaganda Media propaganda Propaganda is a form of communication that is aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position. As opposed to impartially providing information, propaganda, in its most basic sense, presents information primarily to influence an audience. Propaganda often presents facts selectively (thus possibly lying by omission) to encourage a particular synthesis, or uses loaded messages to produce an emotional rather than rational response to the information presented. The desired result is a change of the attitude toward the subject in the target audience to further a political agenda. Propaganda can be used as a form of political warfare. While the term propaganda has acquired a strongly negative ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The Creel Commission provided themes for speeches by "four–minute men" at public functions, and also encouraged censorship of the American press. The Commission was so unpopular that after the war, Congress closed it down without providing funding to organize and archive its papers. The war propaganda campaign of Lippmann and Bernays produced within six months such an intense anti–German hysteria as to permanently impress American business (and Adolf Hitler, among others) with the potential of large–scale propaganda to control public opinion. Bernays coined the terms "group mind" and "engineering consent", important concepts in practical propaganda work. The file Century of the Self by Adam Curtis documents the immense influence of these ideas on public relations and politics throughout the last century. The current public relations industry is a direct outgrowth of Lippmann's and Bernays' work and is still used extensively by the United States government. For the first half of the 20th century Bernays and Lippmann themselves ran a very successful public relations firm. World saw continued use of propaganda as a weapon of war, both by Hitler's propagandist Joseph Goebbels and the British Political Warfare Executive, as well as the United States Office of War Information.

  • 5. American Propaganda Propaganda is information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote a political cause or point of view. It can be of a positive or negative nature, but its overall aim is to influence those viewing it and hopefully persuade them to share the propaganda's creator's point of view. When America joined the War in 1941, after remaining neutral and determined not to get involved for two years, a great amount ofpropaganda was produced and displayed to the American citizens. This propaganda was produced in many different forms, one of which was using American companies' advertisements. Although this may seem unnecessary as there were many other media forms that were also used, advertisements were a very big and important form for ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... This shows us that advertisements being used as forms of propaganda were being produced for essentially the entire duration of America's participation in the War, which tells us that it was an important form of propaganda. This meant that America felt that propaganda needed to be produced and spread as soon as possible and advertisements of different companies were one of the first forms of media to be used do so. And by using adverts, they could use both images and written words to influence people. Using emotive language would have been very effective in persuading and influencing others, and an image literally paints a picture for you to imagine. A picture can have an effect without you putting much effort into observation – just by looking at an image you are taking it in; you do not need to read. And by already creating an image for you, you immediately see what they want you to see, and imagine exactly what they want you to imagine, how they want you to imagine it (for example in source E how you see the evil in the Japanese pilot that they wanted the American citizens to see and 'know about' and you see the destruction of the American plane and the pilot, one of their own, falling seemingly lifeless to the ground, which would have immediately hurt and offended the Americans seeing it).

  • 6. What Is Propaganda In Ww1 Propaganda was a predominant and effective weapon of warfare during WW1 (1914–1918) and to a very large extent; it influenced the involvement of civilians in several movements of the war. There were several elements, both stylistic and technical, incorporated within the propaganda, which created conceptions of nationalism and anti–national sentiment and involved different demographics such as North Americans and women. All these factors contributed to the enormity of war and increased the extent of people who participated in the war, whether it was in the trenches at front lines or in their towns at the home front. Nationalism was one of the driving factors of the war and the main objective the propaganda of WW1 intended to portray through ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Images of women were often exploited in wartime propaganda, as they were romanticized and significant female figures. An example is England's image of Britannia, a Romanesque warrior, who encouraged men to fight for their country and protect their women and children (Welch D, Propaganda for Patriotism and Nationalism, 2014). This information substantiates with Jo Fox in her article, Women in World War One Propaganda (2014), as she says "Women served as the embodiment of the nation: MГЁre–Patrie, Marianne, 'the spirit of Australia', Mother Russia, 'Liberty', and Britannia all took the female form, appearing as both demure and combative." German and French propaganda on postcards romanticized war and women, depicting soldiers thinking of their loved ones while at war and helped them envisage heroic returns (McCallum, 1996, pg.141). Women were used as a tool of propaganda in WW1, their involvement due to propaganda issued was a preponderant factor since women had partial support of the war. More than 175 000 women were involved in the industrial activity of the war because of campaigns such as the "Register of Women for War Service" as claimed by McAndrew M, Thomas D and Cummins P (1997, pg.224–225), authors of The Great War; 1914–1918; Problems, Issues, Sources, Skills.

  • 7. The Role Of Propaganda In The Holocaust Propaganda was used to be prejudice against Jews;it was something that made them feel bad about themselves and their decisions. Jews were being treated with hostility because of the religion they were. That then led to Propaganda being used against them. Propaganda was formed around the holocaust when Joseph Goebbels was Hitler's minister for the Holocaust. He played an important role in being part of the Holocaust to the Nazi Germany. He wasn't able to participate in the first World war,because of his weight and he also had a clubbed foot. Joseph then decided to join "The Nazi party" by the end of 1924;1928 he was elected for the reichstag and in 1933 he began.

  • 8. Propaganda In 1984 Propaganda has been used throughout history to promote and publicize a certain political cause or point of view. Propaganda gained its use by the German Nazi Party in the years leading up to and during Adolf Hitler's leadership of Germany. It was a crucial instrument for acquiring and maintaining his corruption of power. The pervasive use of propaganda by the Nazis is largely responsible for the word "propaganda" itself acquiring its present negative reputation. In Nazi Germany posters of Jewish people with exaggerated features would be hung on buildings to make them appear like rats. These posters created an image in people's minds that the Jewish people were not in fact humans and would lead to their oppression. The use of propaganda ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... War is peace can be interpreted as the country is fighting and people within the country are on the same side, which furthers the party's uncontested power. Nobody questions their government while a war. By keeping the masses believing that a constant war is being waged, the government will have a way of controlling the population. War elicits great patriotism and devotion to one's country; it also promotes sacrifice and giving to the community over oneself. So, if there is constant war, the people are constantly blindly pledging devotion to their government. This keeps the people from seeing the large picture and keeps the government in control, and therefore, peaceful. Ignorance is strength can be explained as, if people remain ignorant, they will not question the Party hence making the country "stronger." When the government has no on questioning or looking at them they are free to do what they want. Big Brother implements this by creating Newpeak, which eradicates most words from existence. Words such as rebellion were taken out in hopes that people would forget what it means and stop practicing it. Freedom is slavery can be described as, if people are free to do things and express ideas contrary to the Party's doctrine, everybody is made weak and powerless under the government.

When I was watching the movie "Triumph of the Will" I can clearly see a great example of political propaganda. What Hitler was doing here is spreading his ideas and beliefs to convince the public. The article Paradox of Propaganda states that "When Luis Bunuel showed his edited version of Triumph of the Will to an audience consisting of President Roosevelt, Rene Clair and Charles Chaplin they all agreed the film was too good to be used against itself".

Propaganda is used to promote a certain cause to a mass audience through mass media. Propaganda can be used to spread information for good or bad reasons and has been known to do both. The use of propaganda for bad reasons has caused many people to view it as a deceitful word, one that stretches the truth and blows things out of proportion to gain support––even though that is not always the case. For example, propaganda likes to use testimonials, glittering generalities, card stacking, and other techniques to present information in the best and most biased light (Ogelsbee, n.d.). The article "Defining Propaganda"(n.d.) explains that propaganda can spread its message through a variety of mediums such as pictures, drawings, exhibits, speeches, parades, songs, and so forth. It can present itself in such a way that the audience won't even realize what it is, which can help with its effectiveness. Basically, this means "propaganda can be concealed or open." It can also weasel its way into your life and leave a lasting emotional effect by using "a combination of emotional and logical appeals" (Defining Propaganda, n.d.). Propaganda typically appeals to emotion because it helps get a message across in a short amount of time and is the most effective. All of this means that propaganda can come in many different forms and can be adapted to fit pretty much any ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Because both of these devices are used in communication, we can categorize propaganda as an extremely relevant form of communication.

Animal Farm Propaganda Animal Farm: Timeless Propaganda Upon Animal Farm's first publication in 1945, it quickly became a success and is now regarded as one of the best allegories of Soviet totalitarianism ever written. All of its characters provided a representation of Soviet Russia's political figures, with its main character, Napoleon, illustrating Joseph Stalin and a corrupt totalitarian rule. The book parodies Stalin's rise to power and his eventual total control of nearly every aspect of personal and private behavior. Animal Farm's message does not strictly coincide to the events of the 1930's, however. In Animal Farm, three specific tactics of propaganda arise which are visible today.

He completely isolated them from the rest of the animals in order to mold them into his own instruments of political oppression. Ahmadinejad does the same through strict isolation via information control. Any newspapers which post information deemed unfit for the Iranian public are quickly suspended. The journalists who wrote these articles are often arrested and imprisoned. Iran also has placed several restrictions on high speed internet in an effort to filter out Western influence. Iranian connection speeds were reduced to 128KB per second, making it impossible to receive fast broadband packages. This makes it impossible to receive any western movies, music, or television.

Moreover, Doob, who worked for the Office of War Information in WWII, argued that "a clear–cut definition of propaganda" is not only impossible, it is also highly undesirable (1948, p. 375). He believed that posing any types of limitation will harm the understanding of the term. Since propaganda changes in regard to context and timing in which it occurs, different countries and different time periods would experience different types of propaganda. Thus, propaganda occurring in a given timeframe in a given country will not necessarily contain a propaganda message in the eyes of a neighboring country, for instance.

"Advertisers lean heavily on propaganda to sell products, whether the "products" are a brand of toothpaste, a candidate for office, or a particular political viewpoint." (The Longman Writer McClintock's Essay Pg. 232). There are seven main types of propaganda, Name Calling, Glittering Generalities, Transfer, Testimonial, Plain Folks, Card Stacking, and Bandwagon. Since its first use, most people when they hear propaganda, think only about political ads but that is not all that propaganda is used for. "Although propaganda may seem relevant only in the political arena, the concept can be applied fruitfully to the way products and ideas are sold in advertising."

They say the Holocaust is a myth, invented by the Allies, the Soviet communists, and the Jews for their own ends. Some deniers argue that since there was no written documentation of the killings, that the Holocaust itself was a hoax. They reject all evidence submitted at the Nuremburg Trials(Deniers). The Nuremburg Trials were held in Nuremburg, Germany to bring Nazi criminals to justice. The defendants were convicted between 1943 and 1945, in a series of thirteen trials(History).

However in the book "1984" written by George Orwell and in Nazi Germany, propaganda was used in every opportunity that was given. The propaganda used was to serve two simple purposes. One purpose is to brainwash the people into believing that whatever the government is doing is right and the second purpose is to get the people to hate a certain group of people or ideology. In "1984" and in Nazi Germany they used propaganda to the fullest extent. Propaganda can be used in multiple forms: posters, radio broadcasting, t.v. broadcasting and a bunch of other ways. In "1984" we learn that propaganda is used very strongly to push big brothers ideology and to make it seem that the things the are doing in Oceania and around the world is correct. In the beginning of the book they introduce to us two posters that are hanging on the walls around Oceania. One ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In "1984" they would use posters to push their Big Brother agenda. In Nazi Germany they would use posters to push Hitler's agenda. In the book every day the would have two minute hate were the people would scream and shout hateful slurs toward the party's opposers for two minutes straight. In germany there would posters which would slander the jews and the propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels would do everything in his power to make sure the german people hated the jews. Both "1984" and Nazi Germany both used propaganda for both purposes that I had mentioned earlier. All propaganda used was to achieve the goal of brainwashing the people so that the people would believe that everything that the government was doing was the right thing. With no questions asked. Big Brother and Nazi Germany had installed fear in hatred into their own people with their propaganda tactics. That's why the similarities between the two is ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 36. Dbq Propaganda Propaganda is the use of techniques to easily sway or mislead individuals. It is campaigning and convincing people with what is trying to be advertised. The word propaganda came into use in 1914 during the end of WWl but the use of propaganda actually started a very long time ago, but the term propaganda wasn't used, there was no name for it. Propaganda is a language of power by spreading false information, shaping society's opinion, and being able to control people. One of the reasons propaganda has such power is because of it, in a way, brainwashes people to believe something over the other. People can easily use propaganda to control people or convince them to believe that they are correct even if they were talking complete nonsense. Document ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 37. Uncle Sam Propaganda One can see the use of recurring propaganda in today's time. The first poster of Uncle Sam, named "I Want You for the U.S Army" rose during 1917 as the original artist, James Montgomery Flagg created this poster to encourage recruitment in the United States Army at the advent of World War I. "I Want You for the U.S Army" poster was extremely popular as it had over four million copies of it printed and displayed throughout theUnited States. Flagg created the image to symbolize America and America's demand for young recruits for the war effort. The representation of the colors of the American flag and "Uncle Sam," a fictional man with a crisp stoic expression, as the main focal point revealed the type of features Flagg incorporated to explain ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... The context of the propaganda piece is to spark interest in enlisting with the United States army. However, Flagg creates Uncle Sam in a unique way to not only address the clustered population of young soldiers but to directly encode the importance of the individual. The poster has the word "YOU" in bolded and slightly bigger letters. When one looks at the parts of the poster that are unique, one might look at the word "YOU" and straight towards the index finger pointed at the individual. This use of linear perspective that Flagg creates is fundamental to the message of the poster. If one were to draw lines from any part of the poster, it would lead to the index finger, revealing the important placement of the finger in the middle of the poster. Additionally, the use of lithographs, or authorized copy of an original work, was ubiquitous in the United States as higher quality copy images of Uncle Sam were created consistently at a high rate. This recurring image that was engraved in the minds of Americans exposed to newspapers and media outlets can identify Flagg's poster as a symbol of wartime and demand for soldiers. Flagg's goal of building this symbolic poster of Uncle Sam revealed a man with great fairness, reliability, and honesty; this man was devoted to his country and is now allowing young Americans to carry out his legacy ...

  • 38. Symbols In The Military Propaganda Propaganda can be seen as any information of a biased or misleading nature that is used to promote a political point of view. The oversized warning with an exclamation mark in a red box on the propaganda suddenly captures the reader's mind; as the reader gazes at the propaganda they read, "our homes are in danger now!" The propagandas goal is to tell the citizens of the United Stated that there homes are in danger; the symbols used in the propaganda are two army men, one from German and one from Japan, looking at the North America, on the globe, with warfare in there hands. The slogan they use is, "our job, keep'em firing," intended for the American workers to keep manufacturing the warfare supply. This propaganda elicit an emotional response ...

  • 39. Propaganda During Ww2 During wartime, a nation will do what it can to keep itself safe and bolster the morale of its citizens to keep them happy and to maintain the peace. The U.S. is no different, so I began to search for examples of wartime propaganda. I came across an article written by Gerd Horton in September 1996 titled, "Radio Days on America's Home Front," where Horton goes over the influence of radio and how it was essential to propaganda during World War 2. World War 2 took place right as the Great Depression was ending, and the wartime economy greatly benefitedbenefitted the nation. There was a lot of rationing that went on however, and the public was very displeased by this. Horton talked about how the government took advantage of the fact that "90 per ...
