D. yellow journalism.
Yellow journalism is a term used to describe a style of reporting that emphasizes sensationalism, exaggeration, and often presents information in a biased or distorted manner to attract attention and increase readership. The practice is named after the use of yellow ink in the comic strip "The Yellow Kid," which was popular in the late 19th century and associated with this type of journalism.
