appointed George Creel, a young Denver journalist, to head it. Creel recruited more than 75,000 "four-minute men" who delivered short, peppy patriotic speeches within the country and overseas. Creel also launched a massive pro-war propaganda campaign, printing millions of booklets, encouraging people to sing patriotic songs, and distributing films that depicted the German leader as a villain and US troops as heroes. Creel also promoted the censorship of newspapers and asked publishers to print only articles that supported the war
