    Subject:  Propaganda during the war
    X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: from multipart/alternative
    X-Converted-To-Plain-Text: Alternative section used was text/plain

           I know that, especially during WW I & II, there were people spouting
    their individual factions propaganda over the airwaves.  As far as I know
    (and have been told) there were only only two people doing this: one of them
    was Tokyo Rose (for the Japanese) and the other was Axis Sally. Somehow,
    I think there were more propagandists than just these two.  If so, who were
    they?
    Did we (the Allies) have our own version of a propagandist who stood for the
    US during the war?

    As always,

    All this talk about Fibber Mcgees name reminded me of the episode where they
    learned that the neighbor girl teeny, (voiced by Molly) was named teeny which
    was short for Martini, because her father said she never was dry enough!
