War! (What is it good for?)

War is a hot topic.
Doubtless, emotions rise, with so much blood on both sides. The british news report we watched in class was more reserved, compared to american news.
The question i have is thus:
Is it more accurate reporting to capture the blood and heated emotions,
or the facts?

Is it possible to accurately capture both?

  1. I think that reporting the facts is the essential part even when reporting wars. The blood and heated emotions are here to emphasize the facts and communicate the power and importance of the facts. However, without the facts, there is no news. Even though we might not enjoy the style of the reporting we watched in class, it was actual reporting, without the fluff.
