The Role of Media

When major events happen, people are glued to the television to see the latest news. Operation Iraqi Freedom is no different. The U.S government has given media unprecedented access to the war as it happens. When you see the multiple viewpoints of different news organizations, you can begin to see how the media influences people. The media's influence is not limited to war. These titles show a small glance into the role of the media.
