Tokyo Rose

Tokyo Rose was a name given by United States forces in the South Pacific during World War II to any of several English-speaking female broadcasters of Japanese propaganda. However, the name is usually associated with Iva Toguri D'Aquino who was tried for treason by the United States government.

Theorists have suggested a number of other possible identities for "Tokyo Rose", including Amelia Earhart who some believe was forced to make propaganda broadcasts in the years after her disappearance in 1937 in the South Pacific Mandate area, which was under Japanese Navy administration before WW2.
