Propaganda is a form of communication aimed towards influencing the attitude of the community toward some cause or position by presenting only one side of an argument. Propaganda statements may be partly false and partly true. Propaganda is usually repeated and dispersed over a wide variety of media in order to create the chosen result in audience attitudes.
So Steve Nash saying "got milk" with a milk mustache would not be an example of propaganda but an example of an advertisement or commercial. An example of a propaganda would be the American recruiting poster from World War I depicting Uncle Sam, the personification of the United States.
