Er .... could you be more specific, John?  Happy to help with anecdotes of
past experience, but are you after personal stories, historical,
statistics, theatre only, other media, etc.?  Or all of the above?

I find it hard to think of a show I've done where somebody wasn't pushing
some kind of propaganda - the line between propaganda and opinion sometimes
being a very thin one.

Cheers, Janet
