Sensationalism is a way of telling news or stories so they feel as strange, , or shocking as possible. The headline shouts. The scariest piece is put first. Extra colour is painted on. People use the word to show they do not like it: they think the newspaper, the TV show, or the website wants your eyes more than it wants to be careful and fair. It names the style, not one single article. A story can be sensational — very — without this complaint; sensationalism is almost always a complaint.
煽情、聳動報導（帶批評）。台灣新聞口語常說「聳動」或「煽情」。
組成sensational (shocking and exciting in a showy way) + -ism (a style or practice). From sensational + -ism.
