Yeah, for anyone else still questioning, if an article about former president Donald Trump's foreign relations with Finland during his presidency opened in the starting paragraphs with:

"Donald J. Trump was found by a jury to have committed sexual abuse and forcible touching of E. Jean Carroll. By her own account, Carroll said that on her way out of the store she ran into Trump and he asked for help buying a gift for a woman. After she suggested a handbag or a hat, the two reputedly moved on to the lingerie section and joked about the other trying some on. Carroll said they ended up in a dressing room together, the door of which was shut, and Trump forcefully kissed her, pulled down her tights and raped her before she was able to escape. Trump has also stated in the past that 'You know I'm automatically attracted to beautiful—I just start kissing them. It's like a magnet. Just kiss. I don't even wait. And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pussy. You can do anything.'"

You would rightly consider this to be yellow journalism, as it has nothing to do with Trump's foreign relations with Finland despite being despicable.
