Yello Journalism

Spanish Settlers Trash McKinley:
Early this February morning, a letter was stolen. Why might one care of a stolen letter? Well this wasn't just any letter, it was The de Lome letter. This letter was sent to the United States headquarters in Washington from the Spanish Ambassador. The ambassador was not talking business with the United States, instead the letter consisted of mean comments made towards our beloved McKinley. The letter consisted of statements such as: "the weak and inferior McKinley", "the United States can't keep up with the Spanish embassy", and so on. The letter goes on to threaten the United States power and the leadership of President McKinley. Shall the American people and president stand for this in justice of the Spanish people threatening the power of this nation?
