Abstract
The concept of New Media, which means all the instruments of mass and electronic
communication using digital technologies such as Internet, witnesses a rise after 1990s.
It plays a significant role in war coverage by attracting a large number of scholars as
time goes by. One of the most important wars that media covers is Gulf War Two. The
aim of this study is to evaluate the impact of mass media in shaping the American
public minds, focusing on the battle of Fallujah which is the salient point of the work.
Since this research is related to history, the historical approach is the dominant method
in the work in which the qualitative analytical and the descriptive methods are used
also in order to examine the historical events. This dissertation proves the major role
played by Mass Media which has great effects. Mass Media changes the American
Public Opinion and that appears in the case study of Fallujah Battle which contributes
as valuable evidence in our study.
