Choose an editorial from a magazine or newspaper that states the author's position on a particular issue. Decide if it uses positive or negative propaganda by asking yourself the four questions listed below: 1.What does the author want me to do or to buy?
2.What good will I receive from following the author's suggestions?
3.Why does he want me to follow this suggestion: for his good, for my good, or for the benefit of many others?
4.Will I be going against any of my beliefs in responding positively towards the propaganda?

Write a paragraph describing how the editorial uses propaganda. Include your answers to the above questions and how you came to a decision about the positive or negative effects of this example of propaganda.
