Hanoi Hannah, is a
Vietnamese radio personality
During the Vietnam War, she became famous among US soldiers for her propaganda
broadcasts on
Radio Hanoi.
She made three broadcasts a day, reading a list of the newly killed or imprisoned Americans, attempting to persuade US
GIs that the
US involvement in the Vietnam War was unjust and immoral, and playing popular US
anti-war songs in an attempt to incite feelings of nostalgia and homesickness.
Propaganda was used extensively by Communist forces in the
Vietnam War as means of controlling people's opinions. Radio stations like
Radio Hanoi were in an integral part of
North Vietnamese propaganda operations.
Communist Vietnamese politician Mai Chi Tho, commenting on the use of propaganda, stated:
"Ho Chi Minh may have been an evil man; Nixon may have been a great man. The Americans may have had the just cause; we may not have had the just cause. But we won and the Americans were defeated because we convinced the people that Ho Chi Minh is the great man, that Nixon is a murderer and the Americans are the invaders... The key factor is how to control people and their opinions. Only Marxism–Leninism can do that."
