About this ebook
Go inside the historic Iraq War coverage of NBC News with this in-depth, illustrated history—with a foreword by Tom Brokaw.
Operation Iraqi Freedom marked a new era in television war coverage. On-the-spot reporting by journalists, photographers, and cameramen captured combat in ways that are nothing less than historic. Viewers were transported to the front lines and embedded among the troops. Among all network and cable news organizations covering the Iraqi war, NBC news was the acknowledged leader.
This book, written and produced by NBC News, presents a chronological narrative of reporting from the field supplemented by interviews and anchored broadcasts from Qatar, Kuwait, and the United States. Thousands of hours of images and words have been molded into a concise, eloquent summary of the historic events of the conflict. The book also includes an introduction by an NBC military expert, and a special dedication to fallen colleague David Bloom.
