Uhhh...journalism isn’t a class in my school. But I’ll try to get it right???
EXAMPLES OF YELLOW JOURNALISM
Spanish American war- Yellow journalism helped to push Spain and the United States into war in 1898. The Maine, a U.S. battleship, sunk from an explosion. Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst published false articles about a plot to sink the ship, thereby increasing tensions.
2nd EXAMPLE
Samsung and Apple court case- A story that Samsung paid a $1.2 billion settlement to apple in nickels. The story originated as a comedy, but an American journalist published it as true.
3rd EXAMPLE
Baby snatched by eagle- This headline grabbed attention but the accompanying video was shown to be a FAKE.
4th EXAMPLE
Prime Minister called a traitor- ABC News reported that Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu called Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin a traitor; but the report was false.
5th EXAMPLE
Botox mom- This story of a mom giving her daughter Botox and waxings to keep her looking young was a hoax. The sun, a British tabloid, paid her $200 to say she did it.
THIS TOOK ME FOREVER. But I hope it helps you
