1. Yellow Journalism is a biased opinion of a journalist that over-shadows the actual facts. 2. The explosion of the U.S.S. Maine was the first event where yellow journalism was used. 3. the remedy to yellow journalism is double checking someones sources, and just reading their facts. 4. A Muckraker is someone who seeks out corruption in business's, such as newspapers, and tries to expose it. 5. President theodore Roosevelt originated the term "Muck-Rake" 6. two targets wre corrupt leaders, and the meat packing industry. 7. Yellow journalism is basically making up facts about a story just to get readers interested, so they buy their paper. one story that is an example of this is the story printed by the national enquirer about tiger woods. In the paper it is saying that he and some girl have been having an affair and that he has told her he loves her. he says these are lies. Also it said that Tiger was in "SERIOUS" conditio after the car crash, just to sell copies of this story. i found this on he hollywoodgossip.com 8. Muckracking is a type of journalism that is exposing something to the public. In the article i ofund that the author wanted to expose how george bush caused a spike in the taxes and drop in the economy of the USA. He wanted to let the public know about his thoughts on George bush as a president. I found this on http://www.themuckraker.net/articles.html
