hmm... I just cannot understand why it was considered propaganda (JK!!!)

Selling war bonds was not so much propaganda as it was a public service back then. If this was WWII propaganda, it would contain stereotypes of Tojo or Hitler or something... I guarantee that it WAS banned for the black-faced bugs bunny doing a minstrel impersonation. That's why you don't see a lot of Tom & Jerry (with the black housekeeper). Thanks for ULin' this clip...Porky and Fudd look strikingly similar, no?

'Banned' is a little strong. I'm pretty sure no one in power had any qualms about this catoon in the 40s. In 2001 the Cartoon Network decided not to show a dozen or so Bugs Bunny cartoons for assorted reasons, mostly ones that had racist moments like this video. But even that doesn't equal banning.

i agree, muffins. probably not a ban in the true sense but an unwritten agreement to stop airing it....have you ever seen Bugs Bunny as Tojo? That's friggin amazing.

I think the blackface was the real reason.
