The media influence ongoing and future military operations by functioning as a sort of filter (or "ether ") within the Clausewitzian Trinity, which coalesces the military, the people (public), and the government (policy makers).

A historical examination from the World Wars through ongoing operations in Iraq of this relationship provides trends and offers insights for the future. Maintaining public opinion that favors the military remains a challenge, especially as wars become protracted. Balancing the public 's right to know and the reality of the horrors of war becomes a burden that the media and the military share. The military has walked a fine line between inclusion and exclusion of medi
