The article also describes how the article went out of control shortly after launch. This suggests that the North Koreans do not have the technology to manage their weapons and this creates a sense of risk. The article then says that "failed so quickly that the United States was never able to ascertain in what direction it was headed." This creates doubt about where the missile was headed. It also creates the idea that the missile may have been aimed at a certain place and not just a test missile aimed at sea. These statements are not backed by fact. They are propaganda aimed at creating fear in people. It is the uncertainty of where the missile was headed that makes the statement effective propaganda. Every person reading the article could fear that it was headed to where they live.

The final propaganda in the article is related to what the article says about North Korea.

It describes North Korea defending its missile talks and "promising more to come." This vague statement gives few details about North Korea's reasoning and does not offer any explanation. The statement that they promise there is more to come creates the idea that there is something to fear. This seems to suggest that action should be taken to stop North Korea now.

Overall, it seems that the article is designed to support what President George W. Bush wants. The purpose of the article is to create fear about the missile tests and to get the public to support Bush's call for action. The words used, the photo of Bush used, the way the missile tests are described, the way North Korean actions are described, and the way Bush's response is described all support this purpose. This shows how the use of language and propaganda can be used to influence the people of society.
