What has the advertiser done to try and get you to join Facebook? What is Propaganda? Propaganda is a specific type of message presentation aimed at serving an agenda. At its root, the denotation of propaganda is 'to propagate (actively spread) a philosophy or point of view'. The most common use of the term (historically) is in political contexts; in particular to refer to certain efforts sponsored by governments or political groups.

They used posters to: • justify their involvement to their own populace • As a means of recruiting men • A way to raise money and resources to sustain the military campaign. • To urge conservation Television had not yet been invented Not everyone owned or had access to a radio Posters were the most effective means of getting a message across Negative – Get people to act based on fear or anger Positive – Get people act by using encouraging, motivating, spirited (patriotic) messages Seven Tricks (link) Activity: In small groups, examine the following posters and identify the ‘tricks’ used in the posters.
