Answer:

During the 2nd world war, media was mainly based on news papers and radio and governments strictly controlled the flow of information to the public. Because of this, each nation exaggerated their armies and their actions. N matter how they have acted during the war, ethical or not, they were hailed as heroes and their "misbehaviours" were "Covered up".

How ever, during the vietnam war, private media networks, independent journalists and media were able to reach the war zones and extract the true stories from the field. Moreover, the media was mainly based on television unlike in the WW2 era, this gave audiences exclusive access to whats happening in the war zone.

Moreover, this flow of information allowed to develop a dialogue among the american citizens about the US intervention in vietnam and the human and monetary cost of it.

Because of this, the people had a different view of the combatants returning from the vietnam compared to the ww2.

How much authority did roosevelt delegate to military authorities to carry out executive order 9066?
Yuliya22 [10]
President Franklin D. Roosevelt gave military authorities a significant amount of power to carry out Executive Order 9066. This order called for the removal of citizens with Japanese, German, or Italian ancestry into internment camps during World War II. This was done shortly after Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7th, 1941.

To carry out this order, the Secretary of War was given the power to deem certain areas as military zones. Any area named a military zone by the Secretary of War was one in which citizens could be forced into internment camps. This gave the military the ability to manipulate which areas were military zones in order to target specific groups of people.
