Americans perceived Spain's rule over Cuba as oppressive and exploitative, largely due to reports of brutal tactics employed by Spanish forces against Cuban rebels during the Cuban War of Independence. Sensationalist journalism, known as yellow journalism, exaggerated these atrocities, fueling public outrage. Additionally, economic interests, such as American investments in Cuban sugar plantations, drove a desire for a stable and profitable environment, further intensifying calls for intervention against Spanish rule. This combination of humanitarian concern and economic motivation contributed to the widespread belief that Spain was failing to govern Cuba effectively.
