[Media and War] |
The arcs of global history and the history of conflict are almost identical. As in ancient times, war will continue in the future regardless of who likes it or not. It's a fact that no one can escape. According to location, period and vessel, Impact and extension of the combat. To begin with, individuals had to fight to stay alive in the woods. The next step was to demonstrate one's own personal skill in order to gain the attention and influence of others.
From one generation to the next, tribes have engaged in bloody conflict. State power has grown since the state system was introduced, and kings and kings have waged a fight for the extension of the state's boundaries. There was a fight going on at the time to ensure the survival and growth of zamindari. Religion has been used as a weapon in a conflict. Later, there was a fight for worldwide dominance and colonialism. A number of people, however, feel that arms sellers foment conflict. As the conflict rages on, many businesspeople are also seeking for ways to profit from it. Economic warfare was widely expected to replace fatal conflict in the wake of the two world wars and the long Cold War. China and Japan, for example, have grown without much interest in large-scale battles or so-called weapons competitions. The war's future was cast in doubt by authorities throughout the world.
However, war has been, is, and always will be a reality. Ancient periods saw poets and scribes on the battlefield composing war chronicles and epic tales of soldiers, notably war-winning generals, monarchs, and emperors. Later, the subject of war and media relations and mutual understanding came to the fore owing to the introduction of news and public interest in news. Media inspires optimism, desperation and even rebellion in both the enemy-ally camps by its portrayal of the conflict. Instead of providing factual information, preventing the media from gathering conflict news would lead to inflated and inaccurate accounts.
The spread of ludicrous information or rumours may even be aided by the use of half-truths. Those who fought for our liberation came from eleven different sectors or areas. No matter how you slice it, the significance of Swadhin Bangla Betar Kendra's work at the time can't be overstated. This radio station's stirring reports, songs, dramas, and recitations have motivated liberation fighters, their friends, and family members for decades. Ramyakathika 'Charampatra,' particularly in the composition and service of MR Akter Mukul, was as potent as any bomb or bullet. The radicals provided the freedom warriors with immense bravery, passion, and inspiration, much like the supply of explosives or ammunition.
The present situation, on the other hand, is distinct. Many individuals are no longer interested in what is often referred to as mainstream news or media, such as radio, as a result of the free flow of information and the dissemination of false information. Not interested in watching TV or reading the papers. As long as you can have a computer or smartphone in your hands, you may get accurate, half-truths, skewed or even non-existent news or information from all over the globe. In other words, will the media be under attack now and tomorrow? Or will they go toe-to-toe with the press? Some background information should be provided before attempting to find a solution to this issue.
There were soldiers in an African nation giving aid to regions at risk of flooding. There are a lot of individuals in these places who are desperate for help. It was made worse because of the floods. Soldiers were having a difficult time distributing aid. A journalist approached a group of soldiers and inquired whether they had enough relief in their vehicle to distribute it to everyone.
No, the military was a resounding no. The journalist asked to know whether he felt horrible about sending so many people back without any relief. When I realised the answer, I felt horrible and wished we could have helped everyone. Anti-government media headlines read: Army personnel dissatisfied the next day. After that, the combat broke out inside the ranks of the military. The army's commanding officer gave strict orders that no member of the military should talk to the media. That's what the headquarters will say. On the second day, another group of journalists contacted the military to inquire about the flood and aid efforts.
In accordance with the orders of the commanding officer, the men did not speak. They also refuse to explain why they aren't saying anything. "I won't say anything; why don't I say: I will say that, too," read the headline of an anti-government tabloid the following day.. This is the reality of the media's connection with the military, whatever minor the problem may be. That, too, I shall not say.' This is the reality of the link between the media and the military, even if it is a little one. 'I'll keep my mouth shut, too.' However minor, this is how the media and the military interact on a daily basis.
For a variety of reasons, the military stays away from the media. Many governments throughout the globe deploy their spies to the front lines with journalistic training and stipends for their spies. The troops' brains are affected by inaccurate or distorted depictions of the horrors of war, which affects the families of the soldiers. It is common for people to avoid or escape the battlefield due of familial pressure. It's all about the bottom line for the selfish news media and media personnel, who only care about cutting the paper or attracting more viewers. Even makes the headlines.
An campaigner for women's and children's rights from Liberia received this year's Nobel Peace Prize in recognition of his work. Since the end of Liberia's civil war, he has been outspoken in his opposition to the rape of women and children. An unnamed journalist questioned her whether she had ever been raped before she became famous. To when she said "no," he left her and proceeded to find the rape victim. Many others, including him, were moved to tears by the topic. The Vehicle and Supply Branch of the U.S. Army employed the dashing Jessica Down Lynch. Iraqis ambushed a convoy or vehicle during the US-led invasion of Iraq on March 23, 2003. Jessica was a passenger in a moving vehicle. When a missile struck Jessica's automobile, she was critically wounded.
He was also unconscious at one point. Iraqi soldiers are tending to the unconscious Jessica at an Iraqi hospital. A number of other injured American troops were also with him. It was April 1, 2003 when a squad of soldiers launched a commando-style rescue mission to save all American personnel, including Jessica, from the clutches of the Taliban. The commandos returned to the hospital with Jessica's body and the corpses of the Americans who had been killed there. After being challenged by the media, he was constantly asked whether he had been raped. In the course of the conversation, he insisted that he had passed out. Rape was at the centre of all of these young media employees' passion, though. Even now, it is safe to presume that the situation is the same. He had passed out. Some young media employees, on the other hand, were enthused about rape.
Even now, it is safe to presume that the situation is the same. He had passed out. However, rape was the primary focus of the fervour shown by a few teenage journalists. Even now, it is safe to presume that the situation is the same. He had passed out. Rape was at the centre of all of these young media employees' passion, though. Even now, it is safe to presume that the situation is the same. He had passed out. Some young media employees, on the other hand, were enthused about rape. Even now, it is safe to presume that the situation is the same.
To counteract rumours, propaganda, and downright dismal propaganda spread by their own country's greedy citizens as well as those spread by the enemy, a third force, or a fifth force, the media is their only hope. Winston Churchill famously spoke these words during World War II, according to US Senator Hiram Johnson. When it comes to battle, he says, "truth (correct information) is so vital that he needs bodyguards called 'falsehoods.'" The truth should not be twisted in any way by entering into the hands of the wrong people, regardless of the circumstances. Hindu and Muslim troops during the Sepoy Revolution of 1857 awoke to the false report that pig and cow fat were found within the cartridges of a rifle that had to be ripped apart with its teeth. German forces gathered the fat from the remains of enemy and friendly soldiers in 1918 to produce soap and margarine, British media reported at the time (a type of butter). As a result, British aggressiveness towards the Germans was heightened. During World War II, anti-Hitler radio broadcasts claimed that injured German troops were receiving sterilised blood. It didn't take long before things became heated over at the German camp.
Generally speaking, the First World War had little media coverage. World War II journalists relied on information from warlords or the scenario they found themselves in. The Vietnam War started in 1955 and lasted until 1985, twenty years after the conclusion of World War II. In the Vietnam Conflict, a new division between the media and the war emerged. In the beginning, the media was not given much attention by US soldiers fighting in Vietnam. A total of 20-22 journalists were employed in 1984 to gather and transmit wartime news. Each one of them was attempting to pass along army-approved information. It was shocking to the US military, however, when some courageous journalists began disseminating battle news under different guises and in various methods.
Using the services of media workers, the US military assistance command Vietnam (MSCV) soon came to the aid of Vietnam. They're even given special cars to drive. By 1986, the army had enrolled more than 800 media professionals. The news from the battlefield could swiftly reach the living rooms of the globe thanks to the professionalism of many more journalists and the presence of 600 media professionals from all nations, ethnicities, genders, and faiths.
People in the United States, in particular, tripped in front of the television as soon as the Vietnam-via-Japan film entered the country. The media took notice at one time of the futility, loss, and irrationality of the US military's posture in Vietnam. US forces left Vietnam as a consequence of this. Which is then put into action. One of the reasons the United States lost soldiers in the Vietnam War is attributed to the media's uncritical backing and the general lack of concern for the media's well-being. First, US forces were defeated in Washington, and then in Vietnam, as the phrase goes. The absence of media support, which was subsequently admitted by US politicians, is to blame for this.
In the Gulf War in 1990-1991, the US-led coalition drew on its experience in the Vietnam War to seize control of the media from the outset. Tanks, jeeps, artillery trucks, fuel and logistics trucks, advancing to the front of the conflict, situating and delivering combat news straight from there attracted the attention of the world at the time. Regardless of whether the missiles launched by both sides strike each other in the sky or not, the media professionals have shown an unbreakable and crazy daring to report live, even in the immediate aftermath of burning oil depots, refineries, or oil mines. The CNN effect was coined as a result of the widespread influence of several US TV networks, particularly "CNA" (the cable news network in the United States).
There are a number of difficulties that every warlord must address before he or she can begin a combat plan or campaign. These difficulties are referred to be the "ruling power" or "element of battle" in biblical terms of tactics. These criteria include the location and situation of the self and the opponent, the goal, the real state of land or battlefield, weather, day and night hours, moonlight, tides, time calculation, continuity of work, feasible performance process, and brief operation plan. However, following the Gulf War, the media also viewed the media to be a dominating force or influence in the success or failure of the conflict. One of them is a short-term performance process and operating strategy. After the Gulf War, the media also viewed the media to be a dominating force or influence in the success or failure of the war. Short operating plans and possible performance processes are among the options. After the Gulf War, the media also viewed the media to be a dominating force or influence in the success or failure of the war.
60 journalists were killed during the Vietnam War. Ten times as many journalists (almost 700) have fled from one side of Vietnam to the other, risking their lives to expose the truth. Cronkite's presentation of the Vietnam War made him America's most trusted man. Cronkite worked for CBS and was best known as the network's nightly news anchor. At one point, Leonido Baines Johnson, the US president at the time, was compelled to admit that if the US lost control of the Kron Kite, he would lose control of Central America. Aren't we supposed to have a Walter Crown Kite here? What would happen if you take on the media?" In the Vietnam War, there are instances of this.
An end-of-day press conference would be held at 5pm to present information, facts, and news to journalists about what had happened that day in the acquisition. However, outside of this information, the genuine information was presented by the media workers as 'Briefing the Five O'Clock Follies' for the afternoon's broadcast. Do you think it's feasible to fool the media into thinking you've done anything to them?
