Sentence doesn't make sense

[edit]

Axis Sally's Allegiance to "East"

[edit]

Does anyone understand what's meant by "Axis Sally announced her allegiance to the East" after Pearl Harbor? It's not clear to me what an American in Germany would think of as the East in this context. If nobody knows, "East" should probably be changed to "America" or "the Allies."

UK World War One? - Radio broadcasts only began in 1922

[edit]

The following paragraph should be deleted since radio broadcasts did not begin in the UK until 1922:

British propaganda during the First World War set a new benchmark that inspired the fascist and socialist regimes during the Second World War and the Cold War; Marshal Paul von Hindenburg stated, “This English propaganda was a new weapon, or rather a weapon which had never been employed on such a scale and so ruthlessly in the past.”[6] It was clear that large numbers of civilians could be mobilized for a massive war effort through persuasive techniques derived from the emerging disciplines of behavioral psychology and social sciences. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.19.55.95 (talk) 15:30, 16 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Other prominent examples

[edit]

I wish there were some other very prominent examples, like Russian and Chinese services.

I also believe that the title "propaganda" is quite inappropriate. Better be something like, "influence". Pure propaganda as it is understood from the twentieth century is restricted to few contemporary examples. --Esperfulmo (talk) 17:09, 1 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
