Campaign for Soda Warning Labels

Technique Used
Activate Emotion
This is propaganda because
The ad seeks to activate emotion (illicit sympathy) by being in black and white and by featuring a personal story of a young woman and her father. The ad could be beneficial, but people who want to drink soda will likely continue despite warnings.
