 media type="custom" key="3851289" I believe that this propaganda is __assertion__. The video is stating that nuclear war is upon us and that Americans should wake up and realize it. The American people should begin to prepare for the worst and consider putting a bomb shelter in their basements. Americans do not totally realize how horrible nuclear war is, the people might not completely know about what happened in Nagasaki and Hiroshima. This Propaganda is showing assertion because it is telling what should be done and does not leave much room for questioning, even though this propaganda is not totally true.



I believe that this picture demonstrates name calling propaganda. The picture is accusing America of being two-faced and trigger happy. the loudspeaker is saying that the USSR has agreed to stop testing nuclear weapons as asked by the U.S., but then America goes and tests their weapons. The number of bombs being tested is showing that Russia believes the U.S. is trigger happy and just wants to drop bombs. This picture is calling America names that may not be true but may persuade the Russian public. This shows name calling because it is calling America two-faced and trigger happy.

This cartoon is an example of pinpointing the enemy. In this case the enemy is the Taliban. The cartoon is saying that the Taliban would act good but would find exceptions and break their own rules. The cartoon is saying that the Taliban drafted a new constitution with civil rights in mind, but the second part of the cartoon is saying that no one reads the fine print of that constitution. This for of propaganda is stating that the Taliban is the enemy. The Taliban limits the freedom of the people of Afghanistan and abuse their rights. This cartoon clearing shows the propaganda technique of pinpointing the enemy.

This is an excellent job Harrison! A
