For those who have stumbled across this document, an explanation is in order: This is my undergraduate senior honor's thesis. The goal was to take a close look at the evolution of the media-military relationship from Grenada to the Gulf War. I think the analysis I did here is decent (especially for an undergrad, give me a break!) but the best part of this paper are all of the stories, nuggets and facts that I dug up about how the military and media really work together -- and don't work together -- during wars. There's some good stuff here and I welcome people to use it in their own work. Most definitely, these issues are as relevant today as ever.

Unfortunately, my footnotes didn't translate properly when I converted the document into HTML, but the bibliography is detailed. If you really need a citation, send me an e-mail. There are also a few typos here and there but the paper's in pretty good shape overall. It was published and used as a text in a Washington University history class taught by Professor Henry Berger and former Senator Thomas Eagleton after I graduated. I hope you enjoy it.
