What is Propaganda

Jean-Jacques Rousseau
"The most absolute authority is that which penetrates into a man’s innermost being  and concerns itself no less with his will than with his actions."


 Richard Salant (1914-1993) former President of CBS News
"Our job is to give people not what they want,but what we decide they ought to have."


 Bertrand Russell
 "I think the subject which will be of most importance politically is Mass Psychology. ...It's importance has been enormously increased by the growth of modern methods of  propaganda ...Although this science will be diligently studied, it will be rigidly confined to the
governing class. The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated."

John Silber
"The reduction of political discourse to sound bites is one of the worst things that’s happened in American political life."

Socrates
"False words are not only evil in themselves, but they infect the soul with evil."


Huey P. Newton
"I do not expect the white media to create positive black male images."

Friedrich Nietzsche
"The governments of the great States have two instruments for keeping the people dependent, in fear and obedience: a coarser, the army; and a more refined, the school."

Commission On Freedom Of The Press- A Free and Responsible Press, 1947
The modern press itself is a new phenomenon. Its typical unit is the great agency of mass communication. These agencies can facilitate thought and discussion. They can stifle it…. They can play up or down the news and its significance, foster and feed emotions, create complacent fictions and blind spots, misuse the great words and uphold empty slogans."

George Orwell
"At any given moment there is an orthodoxy, a body of ideas which it is assumed all right-thinking people will accept without question. It is not exactly forbidden to state this or that or the other,
but it is "not done"... Anyone who challenges the prevailing orthodoxy finds himself silenced with surprising effectiveness. A genuinely unfashionable opinion is almost never given a fair hearing, either in the popular press or in the highbrow periodicals."

George Orwell
"Political language is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give the appearance of solidarity to pure wind."

George Orwell
"Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one's mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them."

Eric Schaub
"Can we truly expect those who aim to exploit us to be trusted to educate us?"

Will Rogers
"The minute you read something that you can't understand, you can almost be sure it was drawn up by a lawyer."

Will Rogers
"You shake a slogan at an American and it's just like showing a hungry dog a bone."

Will Rogers
"Diplomacy is the art of saying nice doggy until you can find a rock."

Will Rogers
"If we ever pass out as a great nation we ought to put on our tombstone, 'America died from a delusion that she has moral leadership'."


Yuri Bezmenov 1983
