I'm not sure how old the very simple, rather elegant site known as the propaganda site is, but I'm guessing it was originally posted sometime during or near 1994. It is exactly the sort of resource, however, that is perfect for conveying fundamental concepts - easy to navigate, easy to cut-and-paste into digital notebooks, and easy to print and three-hole punch into, well, non-digital notebooks. The author of the site is legitimate as well, the good doctor Aaron Delwiche (LiveJournal, a profile on Trinity University's website), a communications professor specializing in digital communications and their implications who was inspired by the early 20th Century work of the Institute for Propaganda Analysis.
the propaganda site is really a collection articles (defining fundamental concept and logical fallacies) and examples in the form of brief case studies and videos. Delwiche also provides a set of referenes and a list of books he recommends to students interested in the subject of propaganda.
Regardless, this is a great site, particularly for educators or newcomers to the study of propaganda, psyops, and other forms of political communications.
