Propaganda 2


The propaganda effort in World War One, as many organizations and help groups were formed to help aid the War effort. I feel like at the time it was really the only way to get information out to the public besides newspapers


The poster's purpose is to draw a sympathy for the soldiers. In the war when the soldiers have down time there isn't much to do so many take up smoking to pass the time. It is saying we need cigarettes more than anything else
The purpose of this poster is to continue to emphasize the need for rationing food during this time. The word don't is capitalized to help emphasize this.
This poster's purpose is to help rally the citizens at home to save food for the war effort. It is saying that food is just as good as weapons, and anything you can gave will not go to waste.
This poster is meant to help rally the people around their patriotic feelings about Independence Day. The vibrant American colors help bring the reader in. It is more of a pick me up poster in a time of peril.

Propaganda

1) The word propaganda is used to describe political posters that are made to persuade the public to choose a side in a occurring event.

2)Propaganda is "information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote a political cause or point of view".

3)Poster One: The soldiers outside are in many numbers while the man sitting inside is alone. The posters purpose is to evoke citizens to join up in the war effort instead of being bystanders.

Poster Two: The woking man I am assuming is a farmer is shadowed by a patriot in the back. I believe the point of this message is to show the viewer that there is a soldier in all of us.

Poster 3: i am drawn to the knitting in th direct center of the poster. I believe the purpose of this poster is to get women to donate socks to the Red Cross Association to aid the war effort.

7) I believe it is a waste of money. We are already using our taxes to aid the war, and they are trying to get us to give more. If an American is willing to give they will.

8) Most likely because they weren't getting enough support for the war. It wasn't our war to begin with, and many Americans believed we shouldn't have participated in it.
