What is stunt journalism?

Stunt journalism, also known as advocacy journalism, is a type of journalism that presents information in a biased way to promote a particular point of view or cause. It is considered to be a form of yellow journalism, which is a type of journalism that is sensational and often exaggerated in order to attract attention. Stunt journalism is characterized by its use of sensational headlines, provocative language, and biased reporting to draw attention to a particular story or issue. It often involves reporters taking extreme measures to get a story, such as going undercover or engaging in stunts to draw attention to themselves. While it can be effective in drawing attention to a particular story, stunt journalism is often criticized for its lack of objectivity and its potential to misinform the public.
