Claim: The De Lôme Letter resulted to a "Go Home De Lôme" campaign after it was intercepted by Cuban revolutionaries and released to the Hearst press.
Evidence: Much of the press in New York began to demand De Lôme's resignation, and Hearst's New York Journal began a "Go Home De Lôme" campaign. Cuban revolutionaries intercepted the letter from the mail and released it to the Hearst press, which published it on February 9, 1898, in the New York Journal, in an article titled "Worst Insult to the United States in its History."
