Yeah I agree with you. A good example of this is the news coverage of the L.A. Riots in 1992. Remember that clip they kept showing OVER and OVER again, with the white motorist being severely beaten by a group of black youths? Everyone saw that clip, they played it repeatedly. What they DIDN'T play was the next five seconds of it where a group of black men rushed out into the street and saved his life.

Propoganda has a lot to do with the things you DON'T see, rather than just the things you do.
