Embedded journalism
refers to news reporters being attached to military units involved in armed
conflicts. While the term could be applied to many historical interactions
between journalists and military personnel, it first came to be used in the
media coverage of the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The United States military
responded to pressure from the country's news media who were disappointed by
the level of access granted during the 1991 Gulf War and the 2001 U.S.
invasion of Afghanistan.
