How did yellow journalism provoke US involvement in affairs between Cuba and Spain?

The press played a tremendous part in leading the charge toward America's involvement in Cuba. Two publishers, William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer, stood out among these opportunists. They perceived the conflict with Spain as their chance to increase circulation of their newspapers. Seizing upon the opportunity to capitalize on the growing spirit of American patriotism, Hearst and Pulitzer printed sensational anti-Spanish stories. Graphic illustrations commissioned from some of the country's most-talented artists and stories written by premiere authors and journalists of the day were fodder for fueling the flames of war. Together, Hearst and Pulitzer created a frenzy among the American people by reporting the alleged brutality of the Spanish toward the Cuban rebels. (However, acts of outrage committed by the Cubans were seldom mentioned.) By the time the USS Maine exploded in Havana Harbor, the pro-war press had roused national sentiment to the point that President McKinley feared his political party would suffer if he did not engage in war with Spain.

Team meeting What are the strengths and weakness to it?

A team meeting may help relieve tensions or misunderstandings between the members of the team. It may help them come to find a common purpose, too. A drawback is that it may only inflame differences among the staff, and it ties the entire team up in a meeting instead of working.


How did the press effect the Spanish-American War?

It played a role, and it kept the nation informed and inflamed about conditions in Cuba. It reported the facts, sometimes included sidebars with far less than accurate data, always included gut wrenching visuals and relied on GREAT WAR HEADLINESto sell the story. The bolder the better, the more titillating, the better. The bloodier the better.Was in effective in supporting the war effort? Yes, it was. Did it sell papers? Absolutely. Did it influence and inflame? Probably. Was it wrong? Probably. Was it illegal? Possibly. Was it Free Speech? Possibly. Was it protecteted speech? Possibly. Ask Limbaugh, Ivans, Coulter or Rooney. Each would probably contend that what they say is Free and Protectected Speech, but each is in fact is trying to sway public opinion to their point of view. (And that's the end of the story.)


If a Black man shoots a white man is it a hate crime?

Hate crime is not about who shoots who, but why someone gets shot. If a black man shoots a white only because he was white (or the other way around) or another bigoted reason like orientation or religion, then it can be a hate crime. Of course, these types of crimes are politically charged, and it may not be politically correct or expedient to prosecute them as such. Sometimes charging a member of a minority group with a crime against a member of a majority can inflame race relations, and politicians shy away from that.
