Detailed explanation-1: -Propaganda is used to promote a particular agenda or point of view. The goals of propaganda can vary, but common goals include shaping people’s opinions, convincing them to support a particular cause or political candidate, or encouraging them to behave in a certain way.
Detailed explanation-2: -Two examples of propaganda include the Uncle Sam army recruitment posters from World War I or the Rosie the Riveter poster from World War II. Both examples use symbols to represent strength and a sense of urgency as they encourage United States citizens to join the war effort.
Detailed explanation-3: -Propaganda is the dissemination of information-facts, arguments, rumours, half-truths, or lies-to influence public opinion. Deliberateness and a relatively heavy emphasis on manipulation distinguish propaganda from casual conversation or the free and easy exchange of ideas.
Detailed explanation-4: -Propaganda is a specific type of message presentation directly aimed at influencing the opinions or behaviour of people, rather than impartially providing information.
