Joseph Pulitzer and a monkey, possibly meant to represent William R. Hearst, are pictured as cyclones producing trails of yellow journalism newspapers 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.”
