Question

List the ways congress deals with foreign policy:

Answer 1

The print and broadcast media play a role in setting the foreign-policy agenda for the country. Coverage of the Vietnam War is credited with bringing about the public-opinion shift in favor of withdrawal. Perhaps recalling Vietnam, the Defense Department severely restricted how the press could cover the Persian Gulf War. On the other hand, the images of starvation in Somalia and the graphic reports of "ethnic cleansing" during the civil war in Bosnia built support for American intervention in both of those countries.
