 * British officails worked very hard to win American support. One way on how they tried to gain America's support was by using Propaganda. Propaganda is information designed to influence opinion. Britain and Germany used propaganda, but German propaganda was mainly Anti-Russian and had nothing to do with Americans. However British propaganda was extremely skillful and cunning. The British cut the transatlantic telegraph cable from Europe to the U.S. to control the flow of the news to the U.S. So pretty much the news about the war would be based on British reports. When stories arrived describing German attrocities, enough Americans believed them to help sway American support in favor of the Allies because Walter Hines Page, gave the reports legitimately by endorsing many of them. **
