Answer:

This quote refers to yellow journalism's sensationalism and exaggeration over simple figures and facts. This served to draw attention to articles and to sell newspapers.

Explanation:

Yellow journalism is a pejorative term applied to journalism made without real research and ethical considerations.

The context of the quote is late 19th century when Hearst's newspaper, <em>New York Journal</em>, published constantly about Cubans' fight for freedom from the Spanish. It was believed by historians that the campaign led by the New York Journal to remember the U.S.S. Maine, the American ship that was supposedly blown up by the Spanish, was one of the causes for the Spanish-Cuban-Phillipino-American of 1898.

Although it is known today that the war was caused by American imperialist needs for raw materials and consumer markets, Heart's yellow journalism is still associated with the period.

Rasek [7]

Answer:

The Great War for the Empire, 1754-1763 (otherwise known as the French and Indian War, or in Britain as the Seven Years’ War) eliminated French power from North America and extended British power to all territories east of the Mississippi river.

Ironically, the completeness of the British victory set the scene for the elimination of British power from what would become the USA a mere two decades later.
