So True ... The media never reported on the mom shot dead by BLM for saying that ALL LIVES MATTER. I think it is obvious that the media is pushing for a civil war. They want violence to escalate and they don't care who gets hurt. It's all about the ratings.
There was a James Bond movie where the villain was a news tycoon who wanted to start a war to boost his ratings. It seemed like that could never really happen. Now, on the other hand...

1898: "All American journalism is not 'yellow', though all strictly 'up-to-date' yellow journalism is American!"
2020: "All American journalism is not 'triggering' though all strictly 'up-to-date' yellow journalism is triggering the triggerable!"
Wikipedia is far from the end-all, but it is certainly a start-many. When I try to enlighten an innocent babe in the woods, they most often refer to it. I guess I can't be that old when that was the same website the incurious or otherwise elsewhere endeavoring were using back in high school... back when Wikipedia was moderately better and back when there were still new pages to found that weren't found at their birth by strictly "up to date" journlolism. I visited a Wikipedia page I founded the other day... the book I read that inspired me to make the site was no longer even cited... that's not accumulatively helpful... Yellow Journalism had "bold layouts (with large illustrations and perhaps color), heavy reliance on unnamed sources, and unabashed self-promotion" according to the most reductionist literary analyst of all time that brought us Star Wars. "Pulitzer and Hearst are often adduced as a primary cause of the United States' entry into the Spanish–American War due to sensationalist stories or exaggerations of the terrible conditions in Cuba." Yup, the same Pulitzer whose legacy awarded Walter Duranty for covering up Stalin's genocide of the Polish people. Hearst built a castle above San Francisco and inspired the film Citizen Kane.
Kudos on "adduced."
