Much of the empire had gained its independence and a number of the areas still under Spanish control were clamoring to do so. Guerrilla forces were operating in the Philippines , and had been present in Cuba for decades.

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations The Reader's Companion to American History SPANISH-AMERICAN WAR The Spanish-American War—that "splendid little war," as John Hay characterized it to Theodore Roosevelt—has undergone several changes of meaning as an event in American history. At the time, and for long thereafter, it was generally regarded as an unsullied instance of applied idealism: a precursor of the American crusades to make the world safe for democracy in World War I and to defeat fascism in World War II. Then in the disillusioned wake of the First World War, and again in the era of Vietnam, the war came to be seen as an ugly instance of imperialism: the overture to the expansion abroad of twentieth-century American capitalism and military power. A more accurate perspective would avoid the exaggerations of both the idealist and the imperialist views. The war can most usefully be seen as the product of a particular historical moment, of a distinctive combination of external pulls and internal pushes. The most immediate cause was the crisis in Spanish-American relations emerging from the Cuban rebellion against Spanish rule and Spain's brutal but ineffective response. The leaders of the Cuban revolt used the United States as their base of operations and received a good deal of their financial and material support from American sympathizers—much as many other nationalist revolutionaries did in decades to come. Modern, too, was the scale and immediacy of the coverage by the surging American press, alert to the circulation-building potential of a popular insurrection so close to U.S. shores. American opinion was inflamed as well by the undeniably brutal consequences of the Spanish military's concentration of masses of Cuban civilians in areas under their control: about 100,000 of them died between 1896 and 1898.

Entries Publication Data Dedication Advisory Board ... World Civilizations The Great American History Fact-Finder Spanish-American War (April 25-August 12, 1898), conflict between the United States and Spain. Begun over the cause of Cuban independence, the war marked the emergence of the United States as a world power and the beginning of American overseas imperialism. Most of the fighting occurred in the Spanish possessions of Cuba and the Philippines on opposite sides of the world. The expansionists in the United States wanted to acquire Cuba, and in 1895 Cuban nationalists began an insurrection against the Spanish government. After Gen. Valeriano Weyler herded Cuban farmers into concentration camps and took other measures to put down the insurrection, William Randolph Hearst and Joseph Pulitzer started their yellow Journalism newspaper war, molding public opinion in favor of U.S. intervention against Spain and the annexation of Cuba. With the blowing up of the battleship USS Maine in Havana Harbor and the loss of 266 lives, President William McKinley was pressured by Congress into asking for a declaration of war.

Effects of the Press on Spanish-American Relations in 1898 By John Baker Contents Background February 1898 On the Way to War Ethnic Minorities, War and the Press ... Bibliography The Spanish-American War of 1898 marked a turning point in American history. Within a few years of the war's end, the United States was a world power, exercising control or influence over islands in the Caribbean Sea, the mid-Pacific Ocean and close to the Asian mainland. The conflict has sometimes been called "The Newspaper War," largely because the influence of a sensationalist press "Yellow Journalism" (see Yellow Journalism sidebar) supposedly brought on the fighting. Key to a sense of rage propagated by the media were the events of February 1898, which culminated with the destruction of an American battleship, the USS Maine , in a Cuban harbor. The media sensationalized the events in February and the two months following until war began, prompting a debate that still rages whether the press merely reflected the publi's desire for war, or, in fact, actually fed it. (Above, a late February 1898 San Francisco Examiner front page).
