Yellow journalism is a type of journalism that instead of repoting all news it just reports scandals and other types of news that seem appealing. It doesn't always cover the most legitimate topics. Yellow journalists display their stories with lots of pictures and big bold headlines. These tactics make the newspaper/magazine seem less boring and and more appealing then other standard newspapers, and most cases sell more.

The origins of yellow jouranilsm began in 1895 in New York when two newspapers the __New York World__ (Joseph Pulitzer) and __The New York Journal__ (William Randolph Hearst) began competing for circulation, and each newspaper started adding stuff to gain popularity. The term Yellow Journalism came from the comic strip that were included in these types of papers called Yellow Boy,what happend was the ink from the comic strip spread and caused all the pages to be tinted yellow thus coining the phrase Yellow Journalism.

1910 Spanish-American War- A “splendid little war” between the United States and Spain that started on April 25th and ended on August 12th, 1898. The conflict was started when the United States became involved in the conflict between the Spanish and the inhabitants of Cuba. When the USS Maine went to Cuba to project American and exploded in the harbor the United States blamed the Spanish and declared war. The war was relatively short and one-sided since the United States was a rising world power and the Spanish were losing their long-held empire. When the conflict concluded the United States won Puerto Rico, Guam, and the Philippines. Filipinos that expected independence after the defeat of the Spanish were disappointed by the U.S. occupation and fought a violent rebellion which was brutally suppressed. || ||
