How Media Coverage of the Vietnam War Changed America, Journalism




I think media was bad before. After reading this article, media finally does the right thing. Media stopped the war of the Vietnam War. Vietnam War ended after most twenty years. It took a very long time. It was very cruel to Vietnamese and American. Many people died in Vietnam War. American government did not want to stop the war until society began to report the true awfulness of war and the politics behind it. The media and American people lost hope in the government and war. Media also reported images of the war on television. Photos of dead soldiers were shown on television. This was the first time to play the images of war on television. So there were more and more people against the war. Finally, American decided to end the war.



Although media did the good thing in this event, I still trust myself.

  5. I mistook the grammar in my opinion...
    sorry:)

    I think that yours is good,
    however sometimes the media is not correct.
    For us, the important thing is that we can judge whether the info is correct or not.
