This campaign was both overt and covert and ranged from what appeared to be straightforward tourist films to savage attacks on the ANC through a source apparently unconnected to the South African Information Service. The South African government spent millions of dollars to win hearts and minds, with most of this effort directed at the United States, where it had many influential sympathisers.
