Tryin to help you with something of value, we are going to assume you are talking about the Spanish-American War context, in which American Yellow newspapers played an important role to get the US into the war, after the sinking of the USS Maine.
During the coverage of the news in Cuba during the Cuban Independence movement against Spain, the United States decided to closely oversee the situation and send the US navy to the Island of Cuba.
The USS Maine was anchored off the coast of La Havan, the capital city of Cuba when it was sunk.
The kind of press coverage from American Newspapers such as The New York Journal, owned by Randolph Hearst, and the New York World, owned by Joseph Pulitzer, directed impacted the US citizen's reaction with outrage and demanded that something could be done in Cuba.
Those two owners were big rivals or enemies, we could say. And they practiced the "yellow" or sensationalistic journalism style to create drama in their audiences and sell more newspapers.
