Best Answer

Joseph Pulitzer was the owner of the New York World newspaper, and his decision to reduce the price for newspapers contributed to the dissatisfaction among the newsboys. The newsboys went on strike to protest the price change and poor working conditions, eventually leading to a compromise being reached after two weeks.
