Propaganda Techniques In classic and contemporary advertising.

Why? Propaganda is the art of persuasion. It is the spreading of ideas, information or rumor for the purpose of helping or injuring an institution, a cause or a person. Propaganda is intended to make us accept or approve something without looking closely at the evidence. Most of the propaganda devices utilize emotion (pathos) and avoid critical thinking (ethos and logos).

7 Types Seven Types of Propaganda. The seven most common techniques of propaganda used in advertising are: – Testimonial – Glittering Generalities – Transfer – Plain Folks – Bandwagon – Name Calling – Card Stacking

Card Stacking: The strategy of showing the product’s best features, telling half-truths, and omitting or lying about its potential problems.

Testimonial: The use of well-known, respected people to endorse a product or service.

Testimonial places the official sanction of a respected person or authority on a product. This is done in an effort to cause the target audience to identify itself with the authority or to accept the authority’s opinions and beliefs as its own. In testimonial ads, a person, either a celebrity or a representative of “everyman,” praises the product or service. In the case of the everyman approach, the idea is to have consumers relate to the person describing his or her experience with the product of service. If it fills their need, it should fill the consumer’s need. For celebrity testimonials, the intent is to associate the product or service with a famous person. If the famous person believes the product is acceptable, then the idea is that consumers will believe the product is OK.

Glittering Generalities: The act of referring to words or ideas that evoke a positive emotional response from an audience. Virtue words are often used.

Glittering generalities are intensely emotionally appealing words so closely associated with highly valued concepts and beliefs that they carry conviction without supporting information or reason. Glittering generalities appeal to such emotions as love of country, home; desire for peace, freedom, glory, honor, etc. Glittering generalities ask for approval without examination of the reason. Though the words and phrases are vague and suggest different things to different people, their connotation is always favorable.

Transfer: The act of relating something or someone we like or respect with a product. Symbols are constantly used in this form of propaganda.

Common Symbols – The flag represents the nation. – Uncle Sam represents a consensus of public opinion. – A cross represents Christianity. – The Star of David represents the Jewish faith. Transfer devices can be used both for and against causes and ideas.

Plain Folks: The use of everyday people to sell a product or service. Speakers and ads appear to make the person to be “one of the people.”

Plain folks appeal is designed to win the confidence of the audience by communicating in the common manner and style of the audience. Propagandists use ordinary language and mannerisms (and clothes in face-to-face and audiovisual communications) in attempting to identify their point of view with that of the average person. With the plain folks device, the propagandist can win the confidence of persons who resent or distrust foreign sounding, intellectual speech, words, or mannerisms.

Bandwagon: attempts to persuade the target audience to take a course of action “everyone else is taking.” “Join the crowd.” This technique reinforces people’s natural desire to be on the winning side.

The basic idea behind the bandwagon approach is just that, “getting on the bandwagon.” The propagandist puts forth the idea that everyone is doing something, or everyone supports this person/cause, so you should too. The bandwagon approach appeals to the conformist in all of us: No one wants to be left out of what is perceived to be a popular trend.

P. Diddy Pepsi

Name calling: The use of names that evoke fear or hatred in the viewer. The name- calling technique links a person, or idea, to a negative symbol.

The most obvious type of name calling involved “bad names.” For example: Fascist Pig Yuppie Scum Bum A more subtle form of name-calling involves words or phrases that are Selected because they possess a negative charge. For example Social engineering Radical Stingy Counter-culture
