True, provided we limit "any standard" to include only those in effect in the US and/or Western Europe and this day and age... But I think that within the Roman Catholic Church around 1600, in Stalinesque Soviet, or in psych warfare branches of the US Military during the Vietnam War (to take three examples), "propaganda" did have positive connotations. That, however, does not change the definition of the word. M. - -- Martin Howard mvhoward@mac.com - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
