Journalists Interview Question:

What effect did the yellow journalism used by Hearst and Pulitzer before and during the Spanish American War?

Submitted by: Administrator

Yellow Journalism has always had an effect on the way people view different subjects, and how governmental policies are made.

The more sensational the assertion, or outright lie, the more people seem inclined to believe it.

Back in the days of Hurst, and Pulitzer, the media was much less accountable for what it printed, and there were few laws, or rules of conduct for the media to adhere.
