Yellow journalism, or the yellow press, is a type of journalism that presents little or no legitimate well-researched news and instead uses eye-catching headlines to sell more newspapers.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sensationalism )〕 Techniques may include exaggerations of news events, scandal-mongering, or sensationalism.〔 By extension, the term ''yellow journalism'' is used today as a pejorative to decry any journalism that treats news in an unprofessional or unethical fashion.〔Shirley Biagi, ''Media Impact: An Introduction to Mass Media'' (2011) p 56〕 ==Definitions== Joseph Campbell defines yellow press newspapers as having daily multi-column front-page headlines covering a variety of topics, such as sports and scandal, using bold layouts (with large illustrations and perhaps color), heavy reliance on unnamed sources, and unabashed self-promotion. The term was extensively used to describe certain major New York City newspapers around 1900 as they battled for circulation. Frank Luther Mott defines yellow journalism in terms of five characteristics: # scare headlines in huge print, often of minor news # lavish use of pictures, or imaginary drawings # use of faked interviews, misleading headlines, pseudoscience, and a parade of false learning from so-called experts # emphasis on full-color Sunday supplements, usually with comic strips # dramatic sympathy with the "underdog" against the system. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「yellow journalism」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
