Without the provided image, it is not possible to identify specific headlines. However, yellow journalism was known for sensationalized and exaggerated reporting. Stories that demonized or portrayed Spain as a threat, like the sinking of the USS Maine, could have played a major role in influencing public opinion and provoking U.S. involvement in the Spanish-American War.
