Extra, Read All About It
News spread as fast as a war plane
Misleading headlines, big and bold
Influencing American minds
With little to no truth
Pulitzer publishing what people peruse
Hearst headlining his message
War Ship Maine destructed
Money reward for enemy capture
Newspapers spreading the word
Wartime worries, wasted paper
Stories handed to the editor
Who barely gave it a readSpencer Adamson 2
