And in Vietnam, even with those journalists, we had atrocities. I don't think you can eliminate atrocities- because you can't eliminate the fear, the anger, and the personality flaws in every solider in the US army.

I suppose more journalists might have some effect on US soldiers, in terms of better conduct (of course then you have to ask- will better conduct mean soldiers hesitate when they shouldn't, thus giving us more dead US soldiers?)- but we'd have to actually test the theory, to see if it holds water.
