CNN reporting. Is it true? Could the media actually start a war?

See, long ago and far away, there was this US battleship, the USS Maine. And there was this big media mogul, William Randolph Hearst - newspaperman. The Maine blew up down in Cuba, Hearst ginned up a lot of news - next thing you know - like magic, The Spanish-American War.
