Synopsis by Nathan Southern

The "propaganda" in question refers to the publicity effort mounted by the U.S. government in the wake of Pearl Harbor, which convinced the public to rally behind an entry into the massive global conflict. This documentary discusses the implementation of the promotional campaigns per se, their content, and the instrumental role that they played in raising wartime funding.
