Embedded journalism, the practice of placing journalists within and
under the control of one side’s military during an armed conflict. Embedded
reporters and photographers are attached to a specific military
unit and permitted to accompany troops into combat zones.
Embedded journalism was introduced by the U.S. Department of
Defense during the Iraq War (2003–11) as a strategic response
to criticisms about the low level of access granted to reporters
during the Persian Gulf War (1990–91) and the early years of
the Afghanistan War (which began in 2001).
