Truth is the Best Propaganda: Murrow in the Kennedy Years, captures that spirit, in analysis of his speeches and rhetoric while serving as director of the United States Information Agency. This book will give voice to Murrow as public diplomat and thereby make his legacy in international political communication as compelling as his renowned reporting.diplomacy.
