Joseph Pulitzer

Explanation:

Joseph Pulitzer is considered the "father of journalism." Pulitzer was a newspaper publisher born in Hungary who arrived to the United States when he was 17 years old. He and his brother developed what is known as "yellow journalism." This technique allowed both of them to become extremely popular and led to the newspaper as we know it today. He is also well-known because of the "Pulitzer Prizes." These are awards that are given to recognize excellence in journalism, photography, literature, history, poetry, music and drama. Because of these reasons, he is considered the "father of journalism."
