A Review of the private strategizing sessions concerning propaganda activity and the actual propaganda disseminated by the Truman and Eisenhower administrations reveals how they both militarized propaganda operations, allowing the president of the United States to serve as the commander-in-chief of propaganda activity. As the presidents minimized congressional control over propaganda operations, they institutionalized propaganda as a presidential tool, expanded the means by which they and their successors could perform the rhetorical presidency, and increased presidential power over the country's Cold War message, naturalizing the Cold War ideology that resonates yet today. Of particular interest to scholars and students of political communication, the modern presidency, and Cold War history. 410 0$aPraeger series in presidential studies. 606 $aPresidents$zUnited States$xLanguage$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects$zUnited States$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aPropaganda, American$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aCold War 607 $aUnited States$xPolitics and government$y1945-1989 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1945-1953 607 $aUnited States$xForeign relations$y1953-1961 615 0$aPresidents$xLanguage$xHistory 615 0$aRhetoric$xPolitical aspects$xHistory 615 0$aPropaganda, American$xHistory 615 0$aCold War. 676 $a327.1/4/097309045 700 $aParry-Giles$b Shawn J.$f1960-$0451131 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910953626503321 996 $aRhetorical presidency, propaganda, and the Cold War, 1945-1955$9145337 997 $aUNINA
