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.
The
practice has been criticized as being part of a propaganda campaign whereby
embedded journalists accompanied the invading forces as cheerleaders
and flacks.
