The kind of sensationalist reporting, in which writers often exaggerated or even made up stories to attract readers, became know as yellow journalism.
Janessa Nikolaus
Yellow journalism, characterized by sensationalism and exaggeration, played a significant role in shaping public opinion during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It contributed to the outbreak of the Spanish-American War by fueling anti-Spanish sentiment. While it helped to increase newspaper circulation, it also eroded the trust in media credibility.
