Fear mongering 

Also called scare tactic. This is a strategy that various governments and news media uses in order to scare you into agreeing with their policies or points of view that usually involves some kind of protection or banning something which thus enacts more and more useless laws. This also helps keep the population under control as a scared population is easier to control and is more trusting of the government.

They usually fear monger by exaggerating the story or accounting of the events by using massive hyperboles, speak of the object from a negative standpoint and never from a neutral standpoint, use certain rhetorical words such as "dangerous", "lethal", "contagious", or "aggressive" and use only partial truth or no truth at all (aka lies). Usually true journalism and research is completely non-existent when using fear mongering techniques. When the story or segments airs on TV, they also use menacing or disturbing music to further bring out a fearful mood out of the viewers.
The government and media were using fear mongering when they talk about any sort of bacteria or virus.

Selling a war to an unsuspecting public.
The seller, often a chickenhawk could be anyone with influence, such as an elected official or a talk radio blowhard, who paints the best possible picture of war, ignores the negative aspects of war, and warns of dire consequences of not going to war.

shit mongering

coined by the famous Laura of mewing.net, shit mongering is a term used for all the fake patriotism that popped up after 9-11, using American gullibility to sweep up a surge of selective blindedness so that the population didn't realise it was a sham made by the president, and decided it was okay for him to go blow up Iraq because it was in the interest of pure patriotism.
The president decided that the Jackson family would not be terminated or killed in a "plane crash" Wellstone style because they supported his sham by hanging up their eagle adorned flag and sending their children off to die murderers for no reason but greed.

West Midlands slang word for rockers, bikers, greasers etc. In the late 1980s it was used by the UK music press to refer to a specific scene centered around the bands Pop Will Eat Itself and Crazyhead. The term never found favour with readers of 'the inkies' (Sounds, Melody Maker and the still extant NME) and was soon dropped. Now often used in predominantly working-class areas of the midlands and the north to mean someone who listens to rock-derived music and/or dresses in a manner that suggests they affiliate themselves with rock music of some kind.
