New Journalism

	Yellow journalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Yellow journalism is a pejorative reference to journalism that features scandal-mongering, sensationalism, jingoism or other unethical or unprofessional practices by news media organizations or individual journalists.
		The New York Press coined the term "Yellow Journalism" in early 1897 to describe the papers of Pulitzer and Hearst.
		Moreover, journalism historians have noted that yellow journalism was largely confined to New York City, and that newspapers in the rest of the country did not follow their lead.

	Journalism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		News-oriented journalism is sometimes described as the "first rough draft of history" (attributed to Phil Graham), because journalists often record important events, producing news articles on short deadlines.
		Journalism has as its main activity the reporting of events — stating who, what, when, where, why and how, and explaining the significance and effect of events or trends.
		The subject matter of journalism can be anything and everything, and journalists report and write on a wide variety of subjects: politics on the international, national, provincial and local levels, economics and business on the same four levels, health and medicine, education, sports, hobbies and recreation, lifestyles, clothing, food, pets, sex and relationships....

	Yellow Journalism: Puncturing the Myths, Defining the Legacies Newspaper Research Journal - Find Articles
		Campbell first takes on the origin of the term yellow journalism, surmising from meticulous research that the term first appeared in the New York Press in January 1897 and was "not directly" associated with the Hearst-Pulitzer rivalry over the cartoon character the "Yellow Kid." One myth down, three to go.
		The assumption that the yellow journals appealed primarily to the lowbrow audiences of the late 1800s and early 1900s is the next myth to fall.
		From "development journalism" (the news media promoting national unity and objectives), to public or "civic" journalism (journalists crusading to better their communities), to crime-solving journalism, Campbell connects all of them back to the yellow journalism era.

		A hundred years ago, " 'yellow journalism' was used as a shorthand term to associate with the 'new journalism,' which was characterized by the aggressive use of graphics, photographs, big headlines and a more sensationalized treatment of the news," Campbell pointed out at the March 29 Newseum program.
		Yellow journalism is now synonymous with tabloids like the National Enquirer, which do not command as much respect as their mainstream counterparts, said moderator Joan Mower, director of African and Latin American programs at The Freedom Forum.
		Yellow journalism has different connotations worldwide and it is still "invoked in an astonishing number of countries," Campbell said.

	yellow journalism
		The criticism of journalism during the eighties and nineties had been brought about by a transition: journalism was becoming less a profession and more of a business, or so claimed the humorists.
		It was bad enough that the "new" or "yellow" journalism was marred by sensationalism, melodramatic style, prevarication, invasion of privacy, and promotional stunts; but when the papers did these things as servants of the people, it was too much.
		Yellow journalism was thought a more pernicious influence than the dime novel, because the latter did not attempt to justify its sensationalism with moral pretensions.

		Yellow journalism is "a particular form of sensationalistic and spectacular reporting that feeds upon the gruesome and shocking in life." The Yellow Press began in 1898 when newspaper competition was high.
		Yellow journalism shows up when unnamed sources give accusations that are not checked for accuracy and rush to be the first to inform the public and be on air, forgetting to confirm the source with a second, and to check the story over and over again to make sure it's true.
		Journalism has an obligation to provide the people with accurate, reliable information, and should not invent headlines to lure people into reading their magazine or newspaper.

	freedomforum.org: Yellow journalism: More than an epithet for sins, shortcomings in newsgathering
		American yellow journalism, as it emerged in the mid-to-late 1890s, was a complex and much-maligned phenomenon, a lusty sort of journalism suited well to what was an expansive, searching time in America.
		Though they were broadsheets, the yellow journals were known to devote on occasion the entire front page to a single story and a large illustration — a technique evocative of the covers of contemporary tabloids.
		The yellow journals were, moreover, aggressive in their newsgathering and unabashed in calling attention to their reporting exploits.

		Journalism in the late 1890s became known as "yellow journalism" because the sensationalist articles were found among the same pages that carried popular yellow cartoon characters.

	Selling the Kid: The Role of Yellow Journalism
		The Yellow Kid's rise as a commercial presence would not have happened without his namesake: yellow journalism.
		Campbell says the Pulitzer-Hearst fight over the Yellow Kid—Outcault left Pulitzer to join Hearst in October 1896—was not the immediate inspiration, but the Yellow Kid's appearance on the Journal's editorial page (in the Yellow Kid Diary entries) during his Around the World trip early in 1897 angered the editor.
		Campbell discounts other myths regarding the origination of "yellow journalism," including Bill Blackbeard's claim that a September 1896 cross-country bicycle race sponsored by the Journal inspired the term; Blackbeard admitted the article reported to him could not be found.

	Joseph Pulitzer yellow journalism
		An article appeared in the Journal in 1898 describing the death of Colonel Reflipe W. Thenuz, whose name was a refashioning of the phrase, "We pilfer the news." The next day, Pulitzer's paper carried the item, being bold enough to add specific dateline information to make the story appear authentic.
		However, both the World and the Journal jumped on the jingo bandwagon, concurrently publishing a "suppressed cable" that said the explosion was not an accident.
		However, the conscious disregard for the facts was an aberration for Pulitzer, and his later correspondence revealed that the episode haunted him for the rest of his life.

	Viva Cuba Libre: Yellow Journalism and the Death of the Kid
		As yellow journal historian W. Joseph Campbell documents, many blamed yellow journalism, and specifically the New York Journal, for drumming up support for a war with Spain, but the paper was more a reflection of Americans' anger at Spain's treatment of Cuba.
		The Journal did run on it's front page "How Do You Like the Journal's War?" for three days in May 1998, but Campbell points out this was done to mock claims they had started the war, not boast of its accomplishments.
		Campbell documents that the war was not profitable for yellow journals: it drove away advertisers, newsprint costs skyrocketed, and it was expensive to pay for war coverage.

	How yellow is today's journalism
		Critics attacked the Hearst-Pulitzer approach as ``yellow journalism,'' referring to an emphasis on sex, violence and crime sprinkled with emotionalism, inaccuracies, and exaggerations.
		In this centennial year of the start of yellow journalism, most practitioners would claim that brand of newspapering has gone away; that the yellow journalism Hearst and Pulitzer encouraged has yielded to informed, intelligent and unbiased reporting; that the Yellow Kid is dead.
		We modern journalists may not practice the sensationalism that marked the yellow journalism of Hearst and Pulitzer in their quest for profits, but we are in subtle danger of compromising ourselves for the sake of prominence and payoffs.

		In the mid-1890s, Pulitzer (in the New York World) and Hearst (in the San Francisco Examiner and later the New York Morning Journal) transformed newspapers with sensational and scandalous news coverage, the use of drawings and the inclusion of more features such as comic strips.
		After Pulitzer began publishing color comic sections that included a strip entitled "The Yellow Kid" (right) in early 1896, this type of paper was labeled "yellow journalism." Drawn by R.F. Outcault, the popular (if now-unfunny) strip became a prize in the struggle between Pulitzer and Hearst in the New York newspaper wars.
		The papers themselves trumpeted their concern for the "people." At the same time, yellow journalists choked up the news channels on which the common people depended with shrieking, gaudy, sensation-loving, devil-may-care kinds of journalism.
