Abstract

The author, who is a deputy editor for The Social Science Journal, reviews the literature of professional and media scholars who have written about television news over the past 40 years. He concludes, there is only one starting point regarding “reality violence” on nightly TV news: it began with the Vietnam War. The most divisive and longest war fought in America’s history was also our country’s living-room TV war. Its impact on baby boomers who grew up with TV’s window to the world continues today for their children and grandchildren.
