The link above brings you to an article from the New York Times called "The War Endures, but Where's the Media?". This article points out the fact that after several years of being at war in Iraq. American's have almost forgotten the war is still going on. The media coverage of the Iraq War has diminshed greatly in the past several years. The war is no longer on the front page of major newspapers or lead stories on the news. It's no wonder this war has been nicknamed "The Forgotten War".
The media coverage of the Iraq War differs so much from that of the Gulf War. This war was constantly covered by many media outlets until it ended. Not once did the American public forget about the war in the Gulf.
