During World War One our country was made up of immigrants. It was divided and broken into pieces and support for sides. When America entered the war on April 6, 1917, the biggest worry was public unity. So on April, 13, 1917, President Wilson created the Committee on Public Information. They censored and limited "Damaging information," that might have induced support for the non-allies. Soon the company was combining advertising techniques with psychology to create all sorts of Propaganda.
