These types are : – Press agent- publicity– Public information– Two – way asymmetric– Two – way symmetric

as propaganda . Little respect for truth. One –way of
communication : organization publics.
Measuring feedback is not important.
Researches may be rare.
Public information: Tracked back to around
1900.
Truthful facts. One-way communication.

&1950s. Following the US
propaganda effort of the war I.
