Stars and Stripes was the "official" newspaper of the solders. It provided news from the states as well as motivational propaganda about how well we were doing in the war.
Movies were pro-American and ran ads encouraged people to recycle and buy war bonds to finance the war.
Popular music helped boost troop morale.

The Media contributed to WWII by encouraging and assisting to organize rubber, & metal drives. There were large supply shortage and during WWII most everyone had to put their lives on hold to finish the war.
The Media helped to explain (and expose) the Nazi agenda and why we were there.
And The Media did a lot to rally the country behind the troops.
The problem now is that the Media is still run by liberals/Democrats but the Democratic party is no longer the war enthusiast it used to be, and the Republican party is the party willing to fight (for what it believes is right).
