This usually took the form of ''"overt and covert messages of extreme patriotism and loyalty"'', planted by anonymous 'agents' into ''"popular media to the big screen to the Sunday funnies."'' Other areas of influence included the music industry, organized sports, toys and comics, the latter which got the name "[[Tales from the Front]]".
