TheGuardian’s muckraking has led special interests to withhold advertising in order to drive Robson out of business. But he and local plutocrats put their differences aside when war is declared in 1917 in order to attack the German-American community for its supposed fealty to their Fatherland.Common Causeprovides a vivid picture of the America-first fear and hate that gripped the midwestern United States during the Great War.
