宣传战
media censorship during the second world war created an ideal climate for enemy propagandists. gis in italy, for example, were tormented by the sexy voice of a lady known as axis sally."hullo suckers," was how she began her front line radio show. there were stories of draft dodgers fooling around with gis' girlfriends on the home front, and of hideous injuries sustained by american fighting men."think it over," a show would end."why should you be one of those rotting carcasses?"
the allies set up their own"black radio" stations to spread despondency in enemy territory. hitler was mad- his generals had seen him chewing the carpet in one of his rages. invading britain was pointless-- the allies had invented a means of setting the sea ablaze. stories like these were invented to damage enemy morale.
