Edy A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Journalism and Mass Communication. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Jean Folkerts W. Fitzhugh Brundage Jacquelyn Dowd Hall Frank E. Fee, Jr. Barbara Friedman ©2012 Carolyn Martindale Edy ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract CAROLYN M. EDY: Conditions of Acceptance: The United States Military, the Press, and the “Woman War Correspondent,” 1846-1945 (Under the direction of Jean Folkerts) This dissertation chronicles the history of American women who worked as war correspondents through the end of World War II, demonstrating the ways the military, the press, and women themselves constructed categories for war reporting that promoted and prevented women’s access to war: the “war correspondent,” who covered war-related news, and the “woman war correspondent,” who covered the woman’s angle of war. As the first study to examine these concepts, from their emergence in the press through their use in military directives, this dissertation relies upon a variety of sources to consider the roles and influences, not only of the women who worked as war correspondents but of the individuals and institutions surrounding their work. Nineteenth and early 20th century newspapers continually featured the woman war correspondent—often as the first or only of her kind, even as they wrote about more than sixty such women by 1914.

  • Reporting on the G.I. Joe: Ernie Pyle As America's Eyewitness to World
    Reporting on the G.I. Joe: Ernie Pyle as America’s Eyewitness to World War II Josephine Fields Historical Paper Senior Division 2,491 words Fields 1 In the spring of 1945, just three months before the United States ordered the use of atomic bombs ending the war with Japan, a few American soldiers gathered silently around a small makeshift memorial pushed into the ground on the Japanese island of Ie Shima that read, “At this spot, the 77th Infantry Division lost a buddy, Ernie Pyle, 18 April 1945.” These soldiers grieved not only the death of a comrade but the popular chronicler of common American folks at home and soldiers in the field.1 A small town farm boy from Dana, Indiana, Ernie Pyle’s columns offered a “worm’s-eye view” of the fighting in North Africa, Europe, and the Pacific against the enemy forces of Nazi Germany and Japan. Despite persistent self-doubt, Ernie Pyle reached publishing fame conveying the triumphs and struggles of the American soldier in World War II through a series of ¨everyman¨ columns syndicated across the nation.2 Pyle’s death while reporting in the Pacific Theater exemplifies the tragic loss of potential in all young soldiers whose lives are cut short in battle. Today, Pyle’s triumphant legacy resonates in the stories of soldiers whose contributions would otherwise go unknown and the journalistic writing that still bears his name. Roots and Rising (1900-1935) Born on August 3, 1900, Ernie Pyle grew up on a tenant farm in Dana, Indiana.3 Though not prosperous, Pyle’s parents were hardworking and passed on to their son a compassionate sensitivity toward others.

  • The Story of G.I. Joe by Amy Dunkleberger
    The Story of G.I. Joe By Amy Dunkleberger Like the soldiers of Company C it so lovingly depicts, “The Story of G.I. Joe” is a master- work whose sum is far greater than its mod- est parts. For today’s war movie aficionado, the 1945 film offers nothing flashy or -awe inspiring. No big stars, no fancy special effects. No happy endings and no tragic les- sons. None of the usual components of a great and epic tale. And yet its cinematic power is undeniable. It endures in spite of itself. “The Story of G.I. Joe,” like many contempo- rary World War II movies, began life in the Pictorial Branch of the Army’s Public Rela- tions Department and was designed to serve Burgess Meredith (left) as Ernie Pyle with two actors portraying war-weary soldiers . the war effort in a very specific way. The Courtesy Library of Congress Prints & Photographs Online Collection goal of the project, as explained to the film’s independent producer, Lester Cowan, in 1943, was to other writers, including Oscar-nominated Leopold Atlas, spotlight the Army’s infantry, just as earlier Hollywood Guy Endore and Philip Stevenson, took turns hashing out films had celebrated the Navy and the Air Corps.

  • Investigation of the Style of Ernest Taylor Pyle with Emphasis on His Writings During World War Ii
    AN INVESTIGATION OF THE STYLE OF ERNEST TAYLOR PYLE ' T WITH EMPHASIS ON HIS WRITINGS DURING WORLD WAR I! by JAMES MITCHELL RElNHARD B.A. , Michigan State University, 1961 A MASTER'S THESIS submitted in partial fulfillment of the reqxiirements for the degree i MASTER OF ARTS Department of Speech KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 1969 Approved by: \Jih\i\ t.<\ifjL <ZL L J Major Professor ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I wish to express my appreciation and gratitude to Dr. Norma Bunt on and Dr. William Burke of the Speech Depart- ment, Dr. Virginia Howe of the Radio and Television Department and especially, Dr. Deryl Learning of the Technical Journalism Department. J 1^) mi 7}3t PREFACE There may be some question as to the selection of this writer's thesis subject, concerning the style of the writings of Ernest Taylor Pyle, hereafter referred to as Ernie Pyle. As a speech major, it may appear somewhat incongruous to write about someone who was certainly not an orator. He was a man, rather, whose writing ability has become legendary. However, the area of speech, along with journalism, radio, television, billboards and many other forms of the mass media, all fall under the broad category of communication. Most communicators agree that the many and varied forms of communication are interrelated and to exclude one at the expense of the other would be an unfortunate oversight. An important element in the compilation of material for an effective oral presentation includes a sufficient amount of writing ability. It is fairly obvious, especially to those who are somewhat familiar with the work of Ernie Pyle, that he possessed this quality to an advanced degree.
