Question

How did newspapers contribute to America's declaration of war against Spanish in 1898?

Answer 1

Media blitz

Explanation:

The newspapers send out political cartoons and pictorial advertisements showing the brutality of the Spanish on their people. Even though it was not as bad as the newspapers made it seem, they skewed reality a little bit to get the people reading the newspaper mad. The people who saw these cartoons demanded to their politicians that they declare war, in which they did.
