Don't forget[edit]

Things to not forget to mention:

  • The "big lie" (Goebbels?)
  • Framing of public discussion (see Talking Points)
  • Manipulation of language (liberal was a dirty word for 20 years, still is to some)
  • Bread and circuses (keep the proles too busy working and playing to pay attention)
  • Distraction (not the game show, the avoidance technique)

Cripes Ice, it's a stub! I understand the Wikipedia one is better by default, but biased? How is a stub biased? --Kels 14:32, 5 June 2007 (CDT)


Oh, and looking around for information, I note the Institute for Propaganda Analysis was created to combat what they saw as a threat to democracy in 1937, well before the end of WW II, so any objection to me changing that? --Kels 14:46, 5 June 2007 (CDT)
