War, culture, and the media

"What is the role of British media in our perception of warfare? Are the impressions which we glean from war films, television news reports and newspaper stories reliable? What are the issues - practical political -involved in bringing reports of armed conflict to our television screens? Are British military institutions fairly represented, and how are enemy force portrayed? How are ideas of nationalism and patriotism incorporated into the presentation of war?" "These are some of the questions addressed in this new collection of essays. The book is intended to provide students and general readers with a concise introduction to the main arguments and issues surrounding war and the moving image media in 20th century Britain, as well as contributing new perspectives to this increasingly important are of debate."--BOOK JACKET.
