Ro and Brad talk about how propaganda in Star Wars worked between the two messages carried through by the Empire and it's counterpart message by the Rebel Alliance. Each had it's own agenda to portray the other in a bad light. Brad gives us a little history lesson on the roots of real world propaganda and how it evolved to something that to this day carries a negative connotation.
We explore how the Empire aligned itself as a force for galactic 'law and order' versus the terrorist forces of the Rebel Alliance through the actions of rebel agents such as Luke Skywalker and the most extremist operative Saw Guerrera and how each shaped the image of the Rebellion.
The Empire was into denial and the Rebels were overpowered due to the secret project that was well underway as we join the story in a New Hope. But aren't 'rebellions built on hope?' We hope you enjoy this critical analysis of "propaganda' in a galaxy far, far away!
