which of the following was a problem associated with \yellow journalism\?
people were reading summaries.
people were receiving poorly edited news.
people were receiving too much information.

Explanation:

Question 4

In the late 19th century, farmers overproduced crops (due to new tech/expansion), leading to falling prices and economic crisis. Other options: demand existed (global market), loans were accessible (though with issues), soil wasn't universally infertile.

William Randolph Hearst competed fiercely with Joseph Pulitzer in newspaper circulation, using "Yellow Journalism" tactics. Others: Bessemer (steel), Sargent (artist), Vanderbilt (railroad) aren't news competitors.

Yellow Journalism focused on sensationalism, often leading to poorly edited, exaggerated news. Summaries aren't a problem, and "too much info" isn't core; it's about low-quality, sensational content.

Answer:

Overproduction of crops
