Propaganda on 92nd Street

The film "The house on 92nd street" demonstrated the way that the U.S. has always used films for propaganda purposes. The film did a great job at showing how the U.S. is an impenetrable fortress that can never be struck down even by spies living in its own borders. It was obvious that this film came out after WWII because it made it quite clear how smart the U.S. government is and it also revealed the types of advanced technology that was used to win the war. Something that relates to today’s propaganda would be the documentaries about the war in Iraq that are geared towards showing how the U.S. is winning the war, even though this is clearly not the case. The point is that propaganda is a convention used by the government to demonstrate the power that this country has.
