I came across the term yellow journalism

I'm now trying to find out what it is and if its useful to me, using this

in the end it turned out googling yellow journalism was a much easier way of finding out what it means

Yellow journalism, or the yellow press, is a type of journalism that presents little or no legitimate well-researched news and instead uses eye-catching headlines to sell more newspapers. Techniques may include exaggerations of news events, scandal-mongering, or sensationalism.
