Is there an argument for propoganda? I think so. We often think of the propogated information in relation to wars and ideological conflicts. But propoganda is also those PSAs that remind us to use booster seats for our kids or to talk to them about drugs or whatever. I don't seek to debate the definition of propoganda, but I do think that we have to first define what constitutes 'good' propoganda from 'bad'. In doing so, I think we answer a lot of the questions about when it is appropriate to use it.
