Summary For a decade straddling the turn of the twentieth century, Mark Hanna was one of the most famous men in America.

Newspapers and other media outlets that supported McKinley reported positively about Hanna, but those sympathetic to William Jennings Bryan, the Democrats' presidential nominee in 1896 and 1900, attacked Hanna far more aggressively than they attacked McKinley himself.
