Media Access and the Military - The Case of the Gulf War

Informationen zum Autor Judith Raine Baroody is a Foreign Service Officer with the United States Information Agency in Nicosia. Klappentext Media Access and the Military shows that, in the context of war, the simple typologies of the press which have been accepted as conventional wisdom are not only out of date, but err in classifying societies monolithically. Within the national culture of the United States, military and media groups differ in the way each frames its vision of the role of the press, and the result is conflict. This study offers a uniquely detailed description of the daily negotiations between the military and the press corps over battlefield access during the Gulf War, and explains how their differing views of the media's role influenced policy.
