Answer: 3 and 3.
Explanation: The coverage is propaganda because newspapers used emotional, inflaming language to shape public opinion before the facts were established (choice 3). The strongest supporting detail is that newspapers blamed Spain and incited public outrage with rallying cries — a direct example of sensational, persuasive reporting rather than balanced reporting (choice 3).
