Yellow Journalism

This is an example of yellow journalism. The ship was not blown up by an enemy but something inside of the ship caused the explosion. The newspapers though said that is was blown up by Spaniards. They wanted to create a problem out of nothing, instead of telling the truth.

The link is to an article that is not yellow journalism. The newspaper article wasn't trying to get what he wanted. He just reported the truth. She was shot by a friend after jumping out of a closet. They didn't try to get gun control out of it, and they didn't say that is was the guns  fault.
