About this document
Media Coverage: WWII vs. Vietnam War by Rodrigo Armando Medina Arellano is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Media coverage of World War II and the Vietnam War differed substantially. For World War II, Americans relied mainly on radio, newspapers, and movie newsreels for war updates. In contrast, Vietnam War coverage increased dramatically in the U.S. only after 1965 when large numbers of American troops were deployed, going from fewer than two dozen journalists in 1964 to around 600 accredited journalists in Vietnam by 1968.
