Spoilers Civil War Movie

[Ruin Explorer]

I think that, from the 60s to the 90s, there was significantly more freedom in war reporting, but prior to the 60s is was very heavily controlled by the state.

The media in general was, as the laws around it tended to be a lot more restrictive.

The situation we have now though isn't the laws restricting the media. It's the media choosing to not to show stuff without even being told not to.

(I will say this weirdly seems to be war-type violence specific, they're less pathetic about state and terror violence. Well, except the BBC, who are almost equally pathetic on that.)
