    MWC Article Media, War & Conflict Media images of war 3(1) 7–41 © The Author(s) 2010 Reprints and permission: sagepub. co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/1750635210356813 Michael Griffin http://mwc.sagepub.com Macalester College, Saint Paul, MN, USA Abstract Photographic images of war have been used to accentuate and lend authority to war reporting since the early 20th century, with depictions in 1930s picture magazines of the Spanish Civil War prompting unprecedented expectations for frontline visual coverage. By the 1960s, Vietnam War coverage came to be associated with personal, independent and uncensored reporting and image making, seen as a journalistic ideal by some, and an obstacle to successful government conduct of the war by others. This article considers the idealized ‘myth’ of Vietnam War coverage and how it has influenced print and television photojournalism of American conflicts, skewing expectations of wartime media performance and fostering a consistent pattern of US Government/media collaboration. Upon analysis, pictorial coverage of US wars by the American media not only fails to live up to the myth of Vietnam but tends to be compliant and nationalist. It fails to reflect popular ideals of independent and critical photojournalism, or even the willingness to depict the realities of war. Keywords documentary, Gulf War, Iraq War, journalism, news, photography, photojournalism, television, television news, Vietnam War, visual communication, visual culture, war, war photography Media representations of war are of interest to media scholars for many reasons. First, as reports or images associated with extreme conflict and matters of life and death, they tend to draw intense public attention, and potentially influence public opinion.

  • Master Draft “Coolness Under Fire”
    “No Job For a Woman:” The Women Who Fought To Report World War II TABLE OF CONTENTS A. SUMMARY This is a request for $625,000 for the Production phase of’ ‘No Job For a Woman’: The Women Who Fought to Report World War II, a one-hour documentary for public television focusing on the story of the women war reporters of World War II, the obstacles they encountered, and their role in contributing to a new way of war reporting. The project received an NEH Consultation Grant in 2002, an NEH Planning Grant in 2004, and an NEH Scripting Grant in 2006. The project has also been selected to be part of the Endowment’s “We the People” initiative because it explores “significant events and themes in our nation’s history and culture” and advances “knowledge of the principles that define America.” During the Production phase, we will expand our fundraising campaign to finance the production, projected to cost approximately $735,000. The non-profit sponsor for this film is Women Make Movies. B. SUBJECT AND HUMANITIES THEMES “Bullets don’t discriminate. The dangers are basically the same whether you are male or female,” says NPR’s Iraq war correspondent, Anne Garrels. Today, a woman -- CNN’s Christiane Amanpour -- is possibly the most famous war reporter worldwide. While women reporting war may seem commonplace now, their arrival in the profession is the result of nearly 150 years of struggle and hard work. Many of these battles were fought in the newsrooms and trenches of World War II. During the course of World War II nearly 140 women reporters were accredited to cover events overseas out of a total of approximately 1700 accredited reporters overall.

  • Female War Correspondents in Vietnam: a Turning Point for Women in American Journalism
    FEMALE WAR CORRESPONDENTS IN VIETNAM: A TURNING POINT FOR WOMEN IN AMERICAN JOURNALISM By Natalia J. Haller A Thesis Presented to The Faculty of Humboldt State University In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in Social Science Emphasis: Teaching American History May, 2006 FEMALE CORRESPONDENTS IN THE VIETNAM WAR: A TURNING POINT FOR WOMEN IN AMERICAN JOURNALISM by Natalia J. Haller Approved by the Master’s Thesis Committee: Delores McBroome, Major Professor Date Gayle Olson-Raymer, Committee Member Date Rodney Sievers, Committee Member Date Delores McBroome, Graduate Coordinator Date Donna E. Schafer, Dean for Research and Graduate Studies Date ABSTRACT Considering the amount of literature written on the Vietnam War, it is confounding that female war correspondents have failed to make a significant entry into historical accounts of the conflict. Part of the challenge when searching for literature on the female war correspondent in Vietnam is that historically, war and journalism have been considered a man’s area of expertise. Much of the literature written about reporters in Vietnam reflects this sentiment. This perception was transformed during the Vietnam War by an unprecedented number of courageous women who broke the stereotypes to become successful wartime correspondents. Unrestricted access to the fighting proved to be an opportunity for women journalists. Four hundred and sixty seven women became accredited during the war, of which 267 were American. The purpose of my research was to review the literature on various factors that created opportunity for women journalists in Vietnam and develop a prosopography of the female war correspondent.

  • Vietnam, the Last Assignment Summer 2020
    Vol. 38 No. 2 Summer 2020 Vietnam, the Last Assignment Summer 2020 A recent Air Force Association magazine featured an article “The Difference in Korea”. The lead off photo was of two B-26s on a bomb run. That got my attention. About all everyone read about US air power in that “police action” was about the first ever jet to jet dogfights over “Mig Alley”. When North Korea invaded South Korea in June 1950, they planned to seize all of South Korea in a month or less, before the US could respond. The only thing that prevented that were the 7000 close support and interdiction air strikes by the Far East Air Forces in July. In fact, during the course of the entire police action, almost four times as many close support and interdiction sorties were flown as counter air. While no specific units were mentioned in the article, most of those missions were by B-26s and B-29s, the B-29s flying out of Okinawa. There was no mention of A-26s, so I wondered if that was an error and called Perry Nuhn. Perry confirmed that it was, that there were no Martin B-26s in Korea, only the Douglas A-26s, but that the A-26 Invader had been redesignated as B-26 after the Maurader had Bob Koehne been retired. https://www.airforcemag.com/article/the- difference-in-korea/ President’s Corner On June 11th, the Secretary of the Air Force, Barbara I hope that all of you are coping with these once in M.

  • Writing the News: Different Formats and Their Functions
    7.3 Writing the News: Different Formats and Their Functions Standard 7.3: Writing the News: Different Formats and Their Functions Explain the different functions of news articles, editorials, editorial cartoons, and “op-ed” commentaries. (Massachusetts Curriculum Framework for History and Social Studies) [8.T7.3] News Reporters Watch the Launch of the Apollo 11 Moon Mission (July 15, 1969), NASA (National Aeronautics and Space Administration), Marshall Image Exchange, Public Domain FOCUS QUESTION: What are the Functions of Different Types of Newspaper Writing? Newspapers include multiple forms of writing, including news articles, editorials, editorial cartoons, Op-Ed commentaries, and news photographs. Each type of writing has a specific style and serves a Building Democracy for All 1 particular function. News articles report what is happening as clearly and objectively as possible, without bias or opinion. In reporting the news, the Society of Professional Journalists Code of Ethics demands that reporters: 1. Seek truth and report it 2. Minimize harm 3. Act independently 4. Be accountable and transparent Editorials, Editorial Cartoons, and Op-Ed Commentaries are forums where writers may freely express their viewpoints and advocate for desired changes and specific courses of action. In this way, these are forms of persuasive writing. Topic 4/Standard 6 in this book has more about the uses of persuasion, propaganda, and language in political settings. Photographs can be both efforts to objectively present the news and at the same time become ways to influence how viewers understand people and events. Press Conferences are opportunities for individuals and representatives of organizations to answer questions from the press and present their perspectives on issues and events.

  • Vanes and Vietnam
    Cover Story Vanes and Vietnam In May the FCC remembered much-loved Club stalwart, Hugh Van Es, who died a year ago. A wonderful retrospective of this famous photographer’s work – deftly put together by Vanes’ close friend and fellow photographer, Kees Metselaar – started proceedings while a huge gathering of old friends and media professionals, many of whom had just attended events in Vietnam and Cambodia that commemorated the 35th Anniversary of the “fall of Saigon”, brought things to a suitably rowdy close. It was fitting – as a consummate social networker, Vanes had always been instrumental in arranging the previous reunion gatherings. Former FCC President John Giannini attended both the Vietnam and the Hong Kong events and here, for The Correspondent, he remembers when he first met Vanes in a bar (that was actually a tent) in Quan Loi in 1969. Overleaf, former Vietnam war journalist Don Kirk uses the reunion to trigger media memories from the war while Luke Hunt finds that the mystery surrounding the disappearance of famed combat photographer Sean Flynn is as strong as ever. 8 THE CORRESPONDENT Cover Story A GUY WALKS INTO A BAR… The bar happened to be the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment’s Air Rifle Platoon enlisted men’s club at Quan Loi, Vietnam, near the Cambodian border. The bar wasn’t really a bar, but a tent on a wooden floor. It was the Fall of 1969. At a table sat four civilians, at least the guy assumed they were civilians. They wore mismatched bits of military uniforms and they had more style than any military personnel.

Since that time an attempt has been made to try and gather as much information as possible in order to give this study a representative outlook. Yet, from the outset, a few obstacles have been encountered which have formed a barrier precluding the examination of some material. It is regretted that the film ''Why Vietnam?" could not be obtained for· examination. This film was made by President Lyndon B. Johnson in 1965. With the help of Ltc. John Rodo~ph of the Oklahoma State University Department of Military Science, it was traced from Ft. Sill, Oklahoma to Toby Hana Arsenal, Pennsylvania, to find that the only remaining copy is on record in the National Archives in Washington, o.c., and cannot be released for viewing. Telegrams were sent to selected war correspondents asking for telephone interviews. The only individual to consent was Brig. Gen. s. L. A. Marshall (U.S. Army, Ret. ), a former war reporter, author (~ Chop Hill), and perhaps the most knowledgeable military historian living today.

In fact, only three articles from her trips to Laos and Vietnam were published in any major magazine.
