Hi all,
I study photography at university, and I'm writing an essay about war photography and desensitization focusing on the Vietnam war as it was the first widely televised war. I'm a little stuck as to where to find sources.
For clarity, i study photography so this will primarily be looking at photojournalism and video-based news coverage :) (also not looking for answers just good places where i might be able to start to find more relevant information thank you!)
