What a newspaper needs in its news, in its headlines, and on its editorial page is terseness, humor, descriptive power, satire, originality, good literary style, clever condensation, and accuracy, accuracy, accuracy! – Joseph Pulitzer who was born on this day in 1847.

NZ media please read, understand and action
Joseph Pulitzer was a yellow journalist who among others things helped instigate the Spanish American war by misleading the public when the USS Maine sank after a boiler explosion
Among other things this lead to the USA aquiring Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guaam and the Philippines and help set the stage for the Pacific war during the second world war
Yellow journalism is flourishing today as we head into the next great conflict
