Flapjack,

Couldn't another reason be that, (the 1st World War was) possibly for the first time (for Europe, anyway), a major war was fought, where a majority of "common soldiers" were literate (and could record and express their horror)? This means that for the first time, war was not recorded and reported just by Officers or their peers (from upper class).

re:"The wholesale slaughter of World War I removed the adjective "noble" from the noun "warfare" forever."
