6 War Headlines “DESTRUCTION OF THE WAR SHIP MAINE WAS THE WORK OF AN ENEMY! NAVAL OFFICERS THINK THE MAINE WAS DESTROYED BY A SPANISH MINE.” “MAINE’S HULL WILL DECIDE. Divers Will Inspect the Ship’s Hull to Find Out Whether the Explosion Was from the Outside or Inside” –What does each headline imply? –How might a reader respond differently to each headline? –which would you want to read first? –Why might different newspapers choose to present the same event differently?

7 Yellow Journalism  Sensational news stories that often exaggerated the facts  Part of a “newspaper war” going on in the late 1800s

8 What really sunk the Maine? “Many ships, including the Maine, had coal bunkers located next to magazines that stored ammunition, gun shells, and gunpowder. Only a bulkhead separated the bunkers from the magazines. If the coal, by spontaneous combustion, overheated, the magazines were at risk of exploding. An investigative board on January 27, 1898, warned the Secretary of the Navy about spontaneous coal fires that could detonate nearby magazines. A book by Lewis Gould in 1982 concluded that inadequate ventilation within the Maine led to a fire in the coal bunkers that set off nearby gunpowder. John L. Offner did his doctoral dissertation on the Spanish-American War. He noted in 1992 that from 1895 to 1898, 13 other American ships had fires associated with spontaneous combustion in coal bunkers.”— Library of Congress Report
