PSYOP involves the careful creation and dissemination of a product message. There are three types of Propaganda that are used to create these messages. They include White propaganda which is used in overt operations and Gray and Black propaganda which are used in covert PSYOP. White, Gray, and Black don't refer to the propaganda's content but rather the methods used to carry out the operation. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychological_Operations_(United_States)
