It's something to remember: the Powers That Be may not get better, but they do get smarter. As it points out, it was the photos taken from Vietnam, ones like that of Phan Thi Kim Phuc running screaming after being napalmed, that really drove home what the war was about and what it was doing to the civilians, to the American people. So naturally, since then, the military and the politicians have done everything in their power to keep tight control of the media, while making sure that reporters feel like modern-day Edward G. Murrows, while enthusiastically repeating talking points.
