"In the United States, all TV and radio advertisements are required to undergo a process in which the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) rates the ads in three primary categories based on FTC Law: Advertising must be truthful and non-deceptive; Advertisers must have evidence to back up their claims; and Advertisements cannot be unfair. These requirements apply to both expressed and implied claims, including information omitted from the advertisements but that still impact the "product" being sold."
"If, however, the advertisement does not satisfy all these conditions, and if FTC is doing its work effectively in the public interest, the ad will not appear on the airwaves unless the sponsors make the necessary changes. Propaganda, on the other hand, is defined as 'information, especially of a biased or misleading nature, used to promote a particular cause, doctrine, or point of view.'"
The United States government funded, produced, and promoted a recruitment advertisement for Immigration and Customs Enforcement during Donald Trump's second term. The ad appeals to law enforcement with promises to catch the worst criminals and offers bonuses, student loan forgiveness, and generous benefits. Federal Trade Commission standards require advertising to be truthful, supported by evidence, and not unfair, covering both expressed and implied claims and omissions. Advertisements that fail to meet those standards should not air if the FTC enforces them. Propaganda is defined as biased or misleading information used to promote a cause, and the ICE ad may fit that definition.
