Rebellion Against Spain Imperialism

The Spanish Empire The Spanish empire was ___falling___________ by the end of the 19th century. Spain had once controlled most of the Americas. However, by the 1890s, it owned only a few colonies.

Spain controlled the Philippine Islands in the Pacific and the Caribbean islands of Cuba and Puerto Rico. At this time, many of the inhabitants of these colonies begun to demand _independence____________.

Revolts in Cuba Cubans had revolted many times against Spain in the second half of the 19th century. Each time, Spanish soldiers forcefully _put down _ the rebels.

US Reaction -Revolts in Cuba caused alarm in the US. Business leaders were concerned because the fighting disrupted US trade (mainly sugar)__ with Cuba. -However, most Americans became outraged when the press began to describe the brutality of Spanish officials. Two New York City newspapers, in particular, stirred up people’s _emotions_____.

Hearst: The New York Journal Yellow Journalism Newspaper owners, Joseph Pulitzer and William Randolph Hearst were battling for _control & number of readers (more $ and power for them!)_. Pulitzer: The World Hearst: The New York Journal

Both owners were able to attract readers by printing stories that described- and often exaggerated- news about __Spanish_______ cruelty. This sensational style of writing was known as _____yellow journalism_. Do you think this exists today?

Hearst was confident of his power to shape events Hearst was confident of his power to shape events. In 1898, anticipating the outbreak of war between Spain and Cuba, he sent artist Frederic Remington to Cuba to cover the event. Remington cabled Hearst, “Everything is quiet. There is no trouble here… I wish to return. Hearst reportedly wired back, “Please remain. You furnish the pictures. I’ll furnish the war.”
