How did the ability to produce newspapers inexpensively change their content? (explain ""yellow journalism"" as part of your ans
Romashka [77]

Answer:

Techological improvements allowed for mass printing of newspapers and books in the 19th and 20th centuries. This has had an economic, commercial and social impact. It was possible to reach thousands or even millions of people with a single edition; it was possible now to reach a massive audience who did not have higher education, but wanted to read news and have some form of entertainment. People have always wanted to know about  shocking events, disasters, tragedies, violent crimes and the juicy details of the romantic life of those famous and powerful. There is an old phrase of American journalism: "Dog bites man, that´s not news. Man bites dog, that´s news." So , newspapers for a massive audience were set up and exploited stories about violence, crime and sex. That´s the advent of "yellow journalism" in the modern world. Besides, having a high number of readers or subscribers assured profits for newspaper owners, because the larger the audience, the larger the advertising revenues. This logic continues to be true today.

19. What is Commonwealth Capitalism?
otez555 [7]

Liberalism can be summed up as the postulate of the free use by each individual or member of a society of his property (the fact that some have only one property: their workforce while others own the means of production is not denied, only omitted). In this sense, all men are equal, a fact enshrined in the fundamental principle of the bourgeois constitution: all are equal before the law, the concrete basis of formal equality between the members of a society. In an extension of this, a second idea proposes the commonwealth, according to which property and freedom-based social organization serves the good of all. (Incidentally, if there is no antagonism between social classes, action can be driven by reason, hence rationalism.) This is the crux of the ideological proposition, which seeks the consented domination of workers through the operation of identifying the interest of the ruling class (maintaining the prevailing social order) with the interest of society as a whole - the nation.
