Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Propaganda is information presented in a biased or misleading way with the intention of promoting a particular political cause or point of view. It is often disseminated by individuals or groups with a vested interest in furthering their own cause, and can be used to influence public opinion or sway the actions of those in power. Rumor, public opinion, and cultural capital are all related concepts but do not necessarily involve the intentional manipulation of information for political gain.
