Pach Associate Professor of History __________________________________ Howard Dewald Dean, College of Arts and Sciences 3 ABSTRACT KNOBLAUCH, WILLIAM M., Ph.D., March 2012, History Selling the Second Cold War: Antinuclear Cultural Activism and Reagan Era Foreign Policy Director of Dissertation: Chester J. Pach This dissertation examines how 1980s antinuclear activists utilized popular culture to criticize the Reagan administration’s arms buildup. The 1970s and the era of détente marked a decade-long nadir for American antinuclear activism. Ronald Reagan’s rise to the presidency in 1981 helped to usher in the “Second Cold War,” a period of reignited Cold War animosities that rekindled atomic anxiety. As the arms race escalated, antinuclear activism surged. Alongside grassroots movements, such as the nuclear freeze campaign, a unique group of antinuclear activists—including publishers, authors, directors, musicians, scientists, and celebrities—challenged Reagan’s military buildup in American mass media and popular culture. These activists included Fate of the Earth author Jonathan Schell, Day After director Nicholas Meyer, and “nuclear winter” scientific-spokesperson Carl Sagan.

  • 230 Douglas Kellner the Persian Gulf TV War Chapter 4 out of Control
    Douglas Kellner The Persian Gulf TV War Chapter 4 Out of Control The Pentagon and Bush administration were concerned with creating an image of themselves as being totally in control of events, waging a well-planned, coordinated, and effective war. Around 7:00 p.m. EST on January 17, however, with the first reports of Scud missile attacks on Israel, a picture suddenly emerged of a dangerous and chaotic war with unpredictable results that might elude administration and Pentagon control. For the rest of the evening, the relentless allied bombing attack was ignored as the TV focus became the Iraqi missile attack on Israel and whether this would lead Israel to retaliate and broaden the scope of the war. It was feared that Israeli retaliation might engulf the entire Middle East in an Arab- Israeli war, which would shatter the fragile U.S.-dominated coalition and perhaps envelop the Middle East in flames. Consequently, Bush's Gulf war could have exploded into Armageddon at any minute. The television presentation of these compelling events was extremely dramatic, highlighting again that this was a live "You are There" TV war which was binding together the world as fascinated and often frightened spectators of military spectacle. It was claimed during the evening that Bush, Baker, and other members of the war team first learned of the Iraqi attack on Israel via television and it seemed that television was providing direct access to the suspenseful events unfolding. But more significant events were going on behind the scenes concerning whether Israel would retaliate against the Iraqi Scud missile attacks.

    CBS REPORTS INQUIRY "The American Assassins" Part II Lee Harvey Oswald and John F. Kennedy as broadcast over the CBS TELEVISION NETWORK Wednesday, November 26, 1975 10:00 - 11:00 PM, EST With CBS News Correspondent Dan Rather PRODUCED BY CBS NEWS PRODUCERS: Leslie Midgley and Bernard Birnbaum EXECUTIVE PRODUCER: Leslie Midgley ©MCMLXXV CBS Inc. ALL RIGHTS RESERVED 1 ANNOUNCER: This is a CBS REPORTS INQUIRY: "The American Assassins". Here is CBS News Correspondent Dan Rather. DAN RATHER: Good evening. Twelve years after the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, only 15% of the American people believe the official verdict of the Warren Commission - that he was the victim of a single assassin, Lee Harvey Oswald, acting alone. Last night, in the first of this series of broadcasts about the controversy surrounding the assassinations of the Kennedy brothers and Martin Luther King, and the attempt on the life of Governor George Wallace, CBS News considered and tried to find reasonable answers to some of the major questions that have been raised about the John Kennedy murder. We concluded, through an independent examination by Dr. James Weston of x-rays and photographs from the Kennedy autopsy, that the President was struck by only two shots, both from the rear. Scientists at Itek Corporation, the nation's leading film analysts, examined Abraham Zapruder's film of the assassination. They found evidence that Governor John Connally's body appeared to be reacting to a bullet strike only a third of a second or less after the first shot hit President Kennedy. This was new supporting evidence for the controversial single bullet theory; no proof, but the possibility established.
