Question

What was the role of yellow journalism in building support for cuba

Answer 1

Answer:

War engagment with Cuba

Explanation:

Around the years 1895 and 1898 a journalism style emerged in which sensationalism really emphasized beyond the facts. This journalism style was very helpful for United States and Spain to engage in war with Cuba. Yellow journalism created the environment for public support for what was known as the Spanish – American War between April 21st, 1898 and August 13th, 1898. Yellow journalism had its climax in influence and intensity in early 1898 when the U.S battleship Main sunk in the harbor of Havana and yellow journalists argued that it was an act of war.
