Cold War Propaganda 3.26.09

The USSR used this as a type of Name Calling propaganda. In this picture the caption states "Stop the killers" referring to The US Troops. The name calling propaganda makes the U.S. troops look like heartless murders, even though they were killing just as many people. The name calling was used to simply make the U.S. look worse then the USSR.

Above is an image from the youtube video "I am John Q. Public." In the video the type of propaganda used is assertion. It was a cartoon video cut ups put together to show how cartoons had an impact on their propaganda. The cartoons are being aimed at children and are presenting false information to children. In todays society a popular form of propaganda used is bandwagon. Bandwagon is used to sell people the idea of an item being the best and by having this item you will be the best. Many celebrities are being used to sell an "Idea" to the average person, making an okay seller into a top seller. The ad I chose shows how in order to be a better athlete you need to drink certain engery/sports drinks.
