Once again, it seems like people who read dictionaries missed the boat.
Propaganda has a specific legal definition which maybe is more relevant than what you found in Webster.
- EpicEng 8y ago>Once again, it seems like people who read dictionaries missed the boat. Yes, those darn dictionary readers... From Black's Law Dictionary[1]: >A message that is aimed at a specific audience that will try to change their thinking to that of the person releasing such propoganda. It will often contain disinformation to promote a certain view point in politics. Not sure why they chose to use the word they're defining in the definition, but how precisely is that significantly different? We can debate the level of disinformation in any specific context, but this sounds about the same to me. [1] https://thelawdictionary.org/propaganda/ https://thelawdictionary.org/propaganda/
