Jiskha sucks 🗿😑
The image can be considered yellow journalism because it is exaggerated. It was not taken at the scene of the explosion
most likely didn't cause bodies to fly or create as large of a fireball like the image depicts. The image was created to
anger the American public against spain, by saying that the ship was destroyed by a Spanish mine even though this was not
a definite fact. Plus the stirred emotions from the massive body count and the motivation of a $50,000 reward for finding
the perpetrator, this played a major role in the Spanish-American War.
