This fascinating compilation of reference entries documents the
unique relationship between mass media, propaganda, and the U.S.
military, a relationship that began in the period before the
American Revolution and continues to this day—sometimes
cooperative, sometimes combative, and always complex. The
Encyclopedia of Media and Propaganda in Wartime America brings
together a group of distinguished scholars to explore how war has
been reported and interpreted by the media in the United States and
what effects those reports and interpretations have had on the
people at home and on the battlefield. Covering press–U.S.
military relationships from the early North American colonial wars
to the present wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, this two-volume
encyclopedia focuses on the ways in which government and military
leaders have used the media to support their actions and the ways
in which the media has been used by other forces with different
views and agendas. The volumes highlight major events and important
military, political, and cultural players, offering fresh
perspectives on all of America's conflicts. Bringing these wars
together in one source allows readers to see how media affected the
conflicts individually, but also understand how the use of the
various forms of media (print, radio, television, film, and
electronic) have developed and changed over the years.
