		While it's true a woman identified as Tokyo Rose was convicted of treason after the war, the trial was a sham and the woman was later pardoned.

	Federal Bureau of Investigation - FBI History - Famous Cases Iva Toguri d’Aquino and Tokyo Rose
		The problem for Aquino, though, was that “Tokyo Rose” was not an actual person, but the fabricated name given by soldiers to a series of American-speaking women who made propaganda broadcasts under different aliases.
		As a result of her interview with the two reporters, Aquino came to be seen by the public—though not by Army and FBI investigators—as the mythical protagonist "Tokyo Rose." This popular image defined her in the public mind of the post-war period and continues to color debate about her role in World War II today.
		This made Aquino, who had gained notoriety as “Tokyo Rose,” the seventh person to be convicted of treason in the history of this country.

	News & Opinion: They Call Her Tokyo Rose (NewCity . 01-20-98)
		She is a myth first spawned by U.S. servicemen listening to female disc jockeys on wartime radio in the Pacific, then seized and molded by a U.S. government seeking to hand out blame for years of death and destruction, and finally propagated by silence, ignorance and ambivalence in the fifty years since.
		But the real story of the woman who became known as Tokyo Rose is even more intriguing than the tale of some sexy, seductive woman calling men from their warships to watery graves.
		When Radio Tokyo asked Cousens to add a female voice, he chose Toguri from amongst several Japanese-American women at NHK, although she was less experienced in broadcasting and less appealing in her presentation.
