You must be thinking of Desert Storm, not Vietnam.
Boggles the mind.

Haha... No, sorry, I'm definitely thinking of Vietnam. Google it?
CNN Launched 6/1/1980
When the network debuted on June 1, the initial channel subscribers only numbered 1.7 million, a number well below the minimum needed to cover operating costs. Despite the rough start and financial struggles, Ted Turner and his news empire quickly became recognized as a tenacious venture, appearing with the headline "Ted Turner Shakes Up the Networks", just two years after CNN's launch on the August 9, 1982 issue of Time Magazine.

I did - CNN started operating five years later in 1980.

Everybody knows it.

I don't know. Yea, I vaguely remember CNN's start up. In Vietnam there were journalists and reporters - were they all working for like, Time Magazine? Somewhat of an issue because it didn't appear to me that anyone was reporting on Iraq. No investigative reporting, no photo journalists, no film, nothing appeared on TV. Yet in Vietnam there was daily reporting. Although the archives appear relatively thin there, too. So the question in my mind now is, who were those photo journalists? Who were they working for?

Naaahhh, the way your OP is worded, you were trying to run down CNN for "fixing a picture".
I hate it when people monkey around with pictures.
Time, Look, Life, a lot of magazine photojournalists, although we just called them photographers back then. Highly censored and command approved. Reporters from all the major newspapers. Not a whole lot of TV cameras in the jungle, they weren't the small things you use today. Lot of pics from the safe zones.
Btw, care to guess who this sad sack that needs a lesson in weapon safety is?
... So in short, Renae who has been here for 8 years... posted a made up story by a conservative news outlet, in the Media Bias section of DP.... all because... she wasn't sure about whether it was legitimate or not. That's far more improbable than CNN editing a picture of a mixed race school shooter to make him seem white. :lol:
