Cartoon Propaganda
Unlike during World War I, when motion pictures and other
broadcast medium were in their infancy, by World War II mass media
has evolved to become truly “mass”. Leaders in all countries could
now reach a very wide audience with their message.
Your job, as a member of the National Information Bureau at the U.S. Department of
Defense, is to create a propaganda poster for the wars today in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Please note that the Department of Defense is very cognizant of racial discrimination
these days; overt displays of racism will not be tolerated in the modern era, so your
poster should not use such techniques. However, the Department of Defense has no
qualms about mocking certain individuals (Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Mahmoud
Ahmadinejad, etc).
