DIRECTIONS:
Using the yellow journalism style of writing that we talked about in class, construct your own yellow
journalism front page to a newspaper about the accomplishments of the TR presidency. You do not
have to focus on all of his accomplishments, but you should refer to multiple topics. You should
additionally give your newspaper a slant. Are you (the editor) pro or anti imperialist?
