 Spanish-American War - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A war that was in part fueled by the American public's desire to end the alleged abuse of Cuban natives would in the end result in three territorial conquests for the U.S., tens of thousands of Spaniards and Cubans killed, and the extermination of a quarter of a million Filipinos.
Spanish minister Práxedes Mateo Sagasta did much to try to prevent this, including withdrawing the officials in Cuba against whom complaints had been made, and offering the Cubans autonomy.
Despite the documented fact that real atrocities were commited in Cuba, and that a real rebellion was being fought against Spanish rule, Hearst nevertheless often fabricated stories or just simply tainted them in highly inflammatory language.
