The media of written war reporting are newspapers, magazines, and now, the virtual texts available on the internet. Each medium has its own poesis or approach to writing; variables such as deadline dates, frequency of publication, editorial policy and etiquette, amount of space devoted to the story, and the availability of illustration result in pieces ranging from the urgently laconic to the leisurely reflective, from the briefly factual to the complexly opinionated, from the quirkily personal to the broadly synoptic. (Television and radio war journalism have their own set of variables.) But despite these variations, modern war correspondence, from its beginnings, has had a primary objective--to achieve believability through an ethos (the Aristotelian term for persuasive appeal located in character) based on autopsy or firsthand experience. It is this objective that underlies the practice that was in its infancy in 1808 when the London Times sent Henry Crabb Robinson to Spain to report on the British forces fighting the Peninsular War. The first conflict to which American newspapers sent correspondents on a significant scale was the Mexican War. Indeed, newspa per proprietors such as George Wilkins Kendall, founder of the New Orleans Picayune, actually agitated for the conflict in the first place. John Hohenberg observes that, "it was the fashion for correspondents to prove their daring by fighting rather than sit on the sidelines as non-combatants" and proving his proximity to the action, Kendall, one of forty correspondents in Mexico, captured a Mexican Cavalry flag, was mentioned twice in dispatches, and was wounded in the knee.

Though newspaper articles a bout war lack the true dialogic nature implied by the etymology of 'correspondence', their epistolary qualities suggest the necessary mutual confidence of the reader-war reporter relationship . The importance of maintaining this confidence is evident in an anecdote told by Emmet Crozier, who, in 1918, was working on The New York Globe and nursing a desire to go to France as a war correspondent. A colleague brought Crozier 'odd fragments' about the war, 'secondhand' material some of which Crozier suspected was fabricated, but which represented his only chance to be a war correspondent. After the war, Crozier discovered that all the material was fabricated and felt that a dirty trick had been played on Globe readers and on the integrity of journalism.
