This chapter is where the triangulation will mainly take place. It concentrates on the three big powers of the time, America, Britain and Russia.

I will understand the target audience, the message, the way they convey the message, the reality of the propaganda and tone of voice. 

Looking at Cold War propaganda mainly, due to moving along the timeline. The Cold War was when propaganda was most important because of the threat of Communism. It was a terrifying idea for westerners, so there was quite a lot of material created.
