-'''Yellow Journalism''' is an unflattering term used to describe media coverage that is sensationalized in order to bring about a desired result.  While not necessarily outright lies, it plays rather loosely with the truth or presents information in a way where conclusions are reached that might not be drawn if all information was presented.
-Both [[Joseph Pulitzer]] and [[William Randolph Hearst]] are associated with bringing yellow journalism into American society through their newspapers in the later half of the nineteenth century.  The prominence of yellow journalism was especially notable in coverage of the [[Spanish]] occupation of [[Cuba]] and Pulitzer and Hearst took credit for the [[Spanish American War]] that followed.
