From the 'living room war' in
Vietnam, to the 'CNN effect' in the Gulf War, to the 'Internet
War' in Yugoslavia, innovations in information and communication
technologies have produced profound effects on the battlefront
as well as the homefront. After 9/11, have networks produced
a more informed, more critical viewer? Have they transformed
spectators into participants? Or have networks 'force-multiplied'
the terror effect? Are some media more than others complicit
in the technology of terror?
