New York Journal

The New York Journal was a popular American newspaper in the early 20th century, founded by William Randolph Hearst. Known for its bold headlines and sensational reporting, it played a significant role in shaping public opinion and influencing journalism practices. The paper often emphasized scandal, crime, and entertainment to attract readers, contributing to the era's "yellow journalism" style. Its aggressive reporting helped fuel competition with other papers, notably during the Spanish-American War, and it remains a notable example of media's impact on society and politics during that time.
