Public Relations as a Defense Mechanism Against Discriminatory Propaganda

Abstract

The purpose of this study is to examine the propaganda against “marginal” organizations and individuals and how these organizations/individuals can use the methods and tools of public relations in the anti-propaganda process. In this context, firstly homophobic propaganda will be discussed as a type of discriminatory propaganda, and then prejudices and stereotypes against homosexuals will be examined with their reasons, usages, sub-themes and various examples. In the public relations section of the study, defending tactics and strategies against propaganda activities will be given in the topics of message strategy, persuasion, target audience analysis, research process, image and reputation management.
