Embedded journalism refers to news reporters being attached to military units involved in armed conflicts. While the term could be applied to many historical
interactions between journalists and military personnel, it first came to be
used in the media
coverage of the 2003 invasion of Iraq. The United
States military responded to pressure from the country's news media
who were disappointed by the level of access granted during the 1991 Gulf War and the 2001 U.S.
invasion of Afghanistan.
