It's all about the technology!

In today's world, we are provided with a much more advanced technology that we are able to get the latest news in an extremely short time. More people know about the news within seconds of things happening. We are kept very informed about the war in Iraq and Afghanistan giving us very detailed information on what things are going on there. Bach then, when the Vietnam War happened, we didn't have the news or technology we have today. Information that was given by the media was more concise and short, like a general overview of what was going on. The news in Vietnam was not updated on a daily basis. Technology plays a big part in the difference of how The Vietnam War was covered to how the current wars are.
