This was due in part to the 1920 book "How We Advertised America: the First Telling of the Amazing Story of the Committee on Public Information that Carried the Gospel of Americanism to Every Corner of the Globe" in which the impact of the Creel Committee, and the power of propaganda, was over-emphasised.
Tai iš dalies buvo dėl 1920 m. Knygos „How We Advertised America: the First Telling of the Amazing Story of the Committee on Public Information that Carried the Gospel of Americanism to Every Corner of the Globe“, kurioje Creel komiteto įtakai ir propagandos galiai buvo skiriamas itin didelis dėmesys.
