My Life in Propaganda is Magda Stroi ska's personal account of growing up with communist propaganda in Eastern Europe where she learned early on about double interpretations and ambiguities through language. Through her chosen field of linguistics, she analyzes ways in which propagandistic language, such as 'doubletalk, ' Orwellian 'Newspeak, ' 'weasel words, ' and, more colloquially, 'bullshit, ' is used to distort reality. The book demonstrates that democracy can never be taken for granted.
