There are seven main examples of propaganda taught in freshman or sophomore English classes in the United States. The most emphasised are: testimonial, the promotion of an event, product, brand or cause by a well known or famous person; plain folks, relative to common peoples' ideology; bandwagon, the promotion to become a part of a group and a group's beliefs; glittering generalities, the use of friendly or welcoming words like patriotic; and namecalling, bad mouthing of an opposing view such as another product or person.

The other forms that are sometimes overlooked are: card-stacking, omissions of facts or using misleading information for promotion; and transfer, an image that helps the audience feel a part of the promotion such as "Are you gellin'?" from the Dr. Scholl's comercial.
