With the U.S. entry into the war against Germany in December 1941, AP's American staff members were arrested and interned for five months before being deported in a prisoner exchange.

AP also allowed the Nazi regime to use its photo archives for its virulently antisemitic propaganda literature. Publications illustrated with AP photographs include the bestselling SS brochure Der Untermensch ("The Sub-Human") and the booklet "The Jews in the USA", which aimed to demonstrate the decadence of Jewish Americans with a picture of New York mayor Fiorello La Guardia eating from a buffet with his hands.
