Propaganda

C

Employs notable spin through selective headline framing that implies U.S. blockade ineffectiveness by highlighting exempt tanker transits without clarifying the policy's targeted scope.

Main Device

Misleading Headline Framing

Headline juxtaposes routine tanker passages with 'U.S. Blockade' to suggest early failure or porosity, omitting that the vessels are exempt as non-Iran-bound.

Archetype
