Yellow Journalism- The Sinking of the U.S.S. Maine By: Cam Hall

          Spain says to America, "We didn't sink the U.S.S Maine," but is Spain really telling the truth.

     America is heart-broken over the sinking of the U.S.S Maine, a ship that held many of our beloved
citizens who suffered greatly. The U.S. is currently putting the blame on Spain, who we know for sure took
part in destroying the U.S.S. Maine. Spain is completely outraged over our beliefs and threatens to go to war
with us if we do not stop feeling as though they are responsible. The people who live in Spain have exhibited rude remarkes to the people of the U.S., including calling Mr. President by the name of Satin, and claiming his soul to be unholy. Americans are currently wanting a war to take place with Spain, saying that if we manage to conquer Spain, then the country itself will be eliminated of all of its evil people and we shall establish a new population there and make the land our own. Also, we have confirmed that the Spainsh people are holding several Americans for ransom and demand that we pay them a lot of money in order for their safety. We plan to trick the Spanish people into taking the money when all of our troops will be lurking nearby, ready to attack and bring them down. Now, we all need to work together to bring these awful people to an end once and for all. We encourage all Americans to "remember the Maine."
