Joseph Pulitzer and a monkey
Caption
Honour to McKinley!' Joseph Pulitzer and a monkey, possibly meant to represent William R. Hearst, as editors of yellow journalism newspapers wrapped up in their papers with outrageous headlines, calling for a declaration of war, while President McKinley calmly reads a paper that states 'The People of the United States have full confidence in your Patriotism, Integrity, & Bravery. They know you will act justly and wisely: decent press'.
