Crusade for Freedom



More on the Crusade for Freedom Tour that made a stop in Johnstown in the early 1950's. According to Wikipedia: the Crusade for Freedom was an American propaganda campaign operating from 1950 to 1960. It's public goal was to raise funds for Radio Free Europe; it also served to conceal the CIA's funding of Radio Free Europe and to generate domestic support for American Cold War policies.
