TODAY'S IDIOM: YELLOW JOURNALISM

"YELLOW JOURNALISM"
 
 
 
Journalism in which sensational stories are used to boost sales, or biased reporting is used to change the reader's views on an issue. Both of these are unethical.
 
Example: Joe: "Is there any difference between yellow journalism and propaganda?" Kate: "I think yellow journalism can be even more dangerous than propaganda if it's being presented as objective reporting by well-known journalists."
 
Amarillismo / Amarillista
 
Example sentences:
 
  • Have you noticed how, during a war, normally trustworthy professionals start writing the worst sort of yellow journalism to justify their government's actions? / ¿Has notado como, durante la guerra, normalmente profesionales de confianza comienzan a escribir la peor especie de amarillismo para justificar las acciones de su gobierno?
 
  • Jerry gets angry when he sees yellow journalism. He says journalists who write it are misleading their readers / Jerry se enoja cuando ve un periódico amarillista. Él dice que los periodistas que escriben están engañando a sus lectores.
 
Additional examples:
 
  • The paper is practising yellow journalism at its worst with its scandalous stories about the Governor and his family.
 
  • This paper is practising yellow journalism with its reports on sex scandals.
