3. Name-calling also called stereotyping or labelling is
another propaganda technique. Direct name-calling is
a direct attack on an opponent. If it is likely to annoy
the audience, indirect name-calling is used. In this
case, sarcasm is employed. Cartoons and photographs
are used in name-calling. This technique is used in
politics.
4. Examples:
1. (Pepsi)- very subtle nothing negative is said but it is implied that cokes' only value
is to use it as a step stool to get to the better product.
2. (Burger King)- slanted comparison at the two fast food chains (McDonalds and
Burger King)
3. (Campbells’s Soup)- points out an ingredient that Progresso Soup contains that
Campbell’s does not… Again there is no proof the consumer would then need to
look at the ingredient on the cans of both soups to determine if the statement is
true.
4. (Political attack ad)- political ads of this type are commonly found on television
before a close election. Very rarely so the people who create the ads provide any
proof of their allegations; the person watching the ad must do the research to
determine if the claim in the ad is true.
5. My opponent is a flip-flop man who cannot make up his ming. He changes mind
with the breeze!
7. Glittering Generalities: These are vague, broad
statements that will connect with the audience's
beliefs and values. They really don't say anything
substantive. Slogans make great examples. The
vagueness means that the implications, though
varying for different people, are always favorable.
Think of peace, freedom, justice, family values, etc.

When his fans see this they want to eat it because their favorite NBA
Basketball palayer eats it.

5. Hayden Panefiere is an actress who is trying to convince people to buy
milk.
19. Plain Folks: This technique works in a way to
establish that the speaker is regular and
ordinary and has the same views and opinions
as the people he is appealing to. It creates a
sense of camaraderie between the speaker
and his audience which helps build belief in

The propagandist uses only those facts and details that
support their argument. The selected reasons are used
to support the conclusion. You will get misled if you do
not notice that important details are missing. The worst
part of card-stacking is that it can be very difficult to
detect if you are not really knowledgeable about the
subject.
