[Originally Published 2019]
"Fake News," "Hollywood Propaganda" and "Manufactured Consent" are bigger buzzwords in the mainstream political discourse today than ever - which unfortunately means that more people are aware of the real history behind how political, philosophical and socio-political messaging in arts, entertainment in the media have actually worked in our recent past (and how it continues to shape the world today) than ever before.
In 2019, "THE BIG PICTURE" produced this two part special episode series that took a brief but comprehensive look at some key aspects of the truth and fiction behind... well, the fictionalization of truth - among other things: What does it really mean to call something "Propaganda?" What did the two fronts of the so-called "Cold War" actually DO against one-another in the world of psychological "warfare" in that era? Did the CIA really "re-invent" American Modern Art as we know it today? What was the secret of The Iowa Writers Workshop? Does Captain Marvel want you to join the Air Force?
