摘要

Pp. viii, 368. $35.00 ISBN: 0-8131-2473-5 The editors amassed a wide ranging collection of essays on the Vietnam War, ostensibly to explain why the Vietnam conflict remains so prevalent in the American psyche, as well as to honor eminent Vietnam War scholar Dr. George C. Herring. Instead of simply supporting or criticizing the media for their support or opposition to the conflict, Wyatt explains how the media changed its reporting methods first based on restrictions by the U.S. government and then - for a while - serving as a supporting tool as the government realized that media support could help undermine opposition and protest at home.
