Delete. Since the word "propaganda" has pejorative connotations, I believe that makes this catagory POV. This sort of thing would be more appropriate at Disinfopedia (which is ironically listed) rather than here.

This shouldn't be brought here. It should be resolved on the CfD page. Rick K 00:09, Nov 27, 2004 (UTC)
Also, I don't subscribe under the negative connotation of "propaganda" word. It is a "necessary evil". Everyone loves to bash advertisements, as long as they don't sell themselves. And other examples abound Mikkalai 05:18, 4 Dec 2004 (UTC)
