Why and how did the Tet Offensive shape U.S. public opinion about the war?

History

Answers may vary in detail, but should resemble some of the following: Television enabled civilians to see real images of the war’s brutality right in their own homes. TV reporters also played an important role in shaping public opinion about the war. As journalists covered stories about the war, they began to report their growing suspicions that the fighting was not going as well as some in the military claimed. Gradually, some people began to call for American withdrawal from the conflict. After the Tet Offensive, television news anchor Walter Cronkite expressed doubts about claims of success. Television also influenced public opinion when anti-war protesters at the 1968 Democratic convention began marching in the streets of Chicago. When a riot broke out, TV cameras broadcast live images. To the millions of Americans watching, the Chicago incident illustrated the loss of control and order in society and politics.
