Abstract
This article analyzes the transformation of War journalism over
the years and focuses on some of the major war events namely
the Gulf war of 1990-1991, the Kosovo conflict, the Afghanistan
war and the Iraq war of 2003. By presenting an overview of the
recent studies conducted in the field of war journalism, the
paper explores major trends within this field. The study reveals
that media played a biased role in recent wars by maneuvering
the findings of civilian damage and hiding the facts from the
battle ground and thus it seems to serve as a state's tool in
transmitting propaganda messages.
