"“The purpose of propaganda is not the personal instruction of the individual, but rather to attract public attention to certain things, the importance of which can be brought home to the masses only by this means. Here the art of propaganda consists in putting a matter so clearly and forcibly before the minds of the people as to create a general conviction regarding the reality of a certain fact…it must appeal to the feelings of the public rather than to their reasoning power,” wrote Adolf Hitler in Mein Kampf.
Hitler continued, “The aim of propaganda is not to try to pass judgment on conflicting rights, giving each its due, but exclusively to emphasize the right which we are asserting. Propaganda must not investigate the truth objectively and, in so far as it is favorable to the other side, present it according to the theoretical rules of justice; yet it must present only that aspect of the truth which is favorable to its own side.” Propaganda under the Nazis was used in an unprecedented way to not only facilitate the rise of Hitler to power, but once in power it was used to mobilize mass support by maintaining a heightened level of enthusiasm and commitment for its ideological foundations.....
...Today, as the Obama administration emphasizes differences, distorts reality, incites mistrust and gins up hostility by compelling followers via their control of the media and press to line up behind their agenda, the power of propaganda has once again reared its ugly head.
It is of no coincidence that as soon as Barack Obama became President he was quick to harness the power of propaganda in using federal resources to promote his agenda. For instance, in a report issued in August of 2010, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform detailed a host of propaganda activities conducted by the Obama administration at the direct expense of the American taxpayers. The report, titled “Analysis of the First Year of the Obama Administration: Public Relations and Propaganda Initiatives“, noted the following:
“The Obama Administration frequently used federal resources to promote the President’s agenda. In many cases, the Administration relied on the reach and resources of federal agencies and their personnel to promote certain of the President’s favorite programs. The White House also leveraged ties to the arts and entertainment community to embed propaganda in the content of television programming and artwork.”...
“The aim of propaganda is not to try to pass judgment on conflicting rights, giving each its due, but exclusively to emphasize the right which we are asserting. Propaganda must not investigate the truth objectively and, in so far as it is favorable to the other side, present it according to the theoretical rules of justice; yet it must present only that aspect of the truth which is favorable to its own side.”
This is a great quote. From Adolph Hitler no less!
Propaganda is what you get when you decide you only want one side of a story. The art of 'critical thinking' has never been less appreciated in America than today. Universities teach the proper conclusions to reach, instead of how to think, the right place to end up as opposed to how to get there.
Listen to either Josh Earnest or Debbie W-S and you can't help but notice that "spin" is being perfected in their use of language, not truth. And what is spin? it's propaganda, one side presented "exclusively". When the news networks become part of the team, the loop is complete.

Dennis Cuddy' THE POWER ELITE AND THE SECRET NAZI PLAN
"the goal of the Power Elite (PE) is a World Socialist Government. Critical to coercing Americans to accept Socialism is the nationalization of key sectors of the economy, such as banking. I’ve indicated in the past that this type of coercion would be brought about by an economic crisis, such as the one we are currently experiencing" http://newswithviews.com/Cuddy/dennis149.htm http://newswithviews.com/Cuddy/dennis150.htm
