How did the media shape public perception of the Vietnam War? Reporters frequently attacked Johnson over his administration's failed policies. For the first time, people saw up-to-date news coverage of war on television. Newspapers refused to cover events that might show the war in a negative light. Protestors published magazines and appeared on television to explain their message.
