Tokyo Rose
Tokyo Rose was a name that was created by the associated troops during World War II. But what exactly was the purpose? Well, it was designed for all the female English-speaking radio broadcasters that were spreading Japanese propaganda. Back then Tokyo Rose was a popular personality, but in reality, it was not a single person but rather a group of multiple women.
