Best Answer

A combination of the American support of Cuban Independence from Old World Imperialist power Spain, the U.S. economic stake in the seaports and plantations of Cuba, and oft-fabricated "yellow" journalism all contributed greatly to American animosity towards Spain. The fourth is a bit more of a catalyst than a direct cause, and that is the sinking of the USS Maine in a Havana Harbor on February 15, 1898, incorrectly attributed by "yellow journalist" William Hearst as being perpetrated by Spanish guerrilla soldiers. All of these combined led to the Spanish-American War.
