Military-Media Relations: Finding a Solution Acceptable to All

Abstract

This paper addresses military-media relations in the operational theater and the need to devise a means of effectively employing the media in that environment. The option examined here is to plan for the use of the electronic and print media as separate entities. By capitalizing on the strengths of each, both the military and the public will be better served. Past U.S. military operations are also analyzed to determine lessons learned about the deployment of the media in the operational environment. Media and Operations, Operational Security, Freedom of the Press, Media and Vietnam, Public Affairs Planning, Media and Gulf War.
