National Geographic TV's Propaganda Tactics
The propaganda tactic so often resorted to in documentaries on
National Geographic TV consists of showing examples of intelligent
behavior by apes and then drawing comparisons between them and
human beings. This tactic can be seen in expressions like "they are
intelligent animals," "their needs closely resemble those of human
beings," and "like us, they feel the need for personal bonds and in-
terpersonal relationships."
The commentary in My Favorite Monkey mentions that apes pro-
duce creative solutions in the face of problems in nature and that
they are intelligent problem-solvers. It says the line between human
and ape behavior may be very unclear.
In another narration, it is stated that they resemble us physi-
cally; we use them in space and medical research. Also, they resem-
ble us socially, but we keep that to ourselves. Family life is very im-
portant among members of the macaque species and we are so
closely related that …
Yet the inconsistency of constructing an evolutionary link be-
tween man and ape in respect of intelligence and interpersonal re-
lationships is quite evident. There are other animals far superior to
apes when it comes to intelligence and relationships. Bees, for in-
stance, are able to employ the kind of architecture in building their

combs that only a mathematician's calculations could match. A geo-
metrical plan can be seen in the comb, one that allows the least pos-
sible material to be used in the construction but the greatest possi-
ble amount of area for storage. (In the identification of such an "op-
timal" design the area and circumferences of different geometrical
shapes need to be calculated, and the geometric shape with the
