98 Alfred McClung Lee and Elizabeth Briant Lee, The Fine Art of Propaganda: A Study of Father Coughlin’s Speeches (New York: Harcourt, Brace and Company, 1939). The ABCs of propaganda were “ASCERTAIN the conflict element in the propaganda you are analyzing. BEHOLD your own reaction to this conflict element. CONCERN yourself with today’s propaganda associated with today’s conflicts. DOUBT that your opinions are ‘your very own.’ EVALUATE, therefore, with the greatest care, your own propagandas. FIND THE FACTS before you come to any conclusion. GUARD always, finally, against omnibus words.”
99 The “Tricks of the Trade” were articulated in Chapter 3 of The Fine Art of Propaganda. I have selected the most appropriate modern emojis available, but here note the original pictographs chosen: Name Calling was symbolized by “the ancient sign of condemnation used by the Vestal Virgins in the Roman Coliseum, a thumb turned down”; Glittering Generality was symbolized by “a glittering gem that may or may not have its apparent value”; Transfer was symbolized by a mask of the style worn by ancient Greek and Roman actors; Testimonial was symbolized by a seal and ribbons, the “stamp of authority”; Plain Folks was symbolized by an old shoe (period slang for an old friend); Card Stacking was symbolized by an ace of spades, “a card traditionally used to signify treachery”; and Band Wagon was symbolized by a bandmaster’s hat and baton.

112 As writer Robert Tracinski points out, secret conspiracies and cabals are a staple of Hollywood, so we perhaps shouldn’t be surprised when people think that’s how our political system works.
