Bad news We had total freedom in Vietnam. That, of course, made the Americans feel when the war finally came to an end that it was the media that let them down. They felt upset about that because they'd given us every facility and all they got in exchange was that public opinion turned against the war in Vietnam. So, if you go to Afghanistan now, you're totally controlled and never going to be allowed to take the kind of photographs I did in Vietnam of the real thing, the battle, the price of war, the suffering and the loss. So, the whole rule book has been rewritten and it doesn't come out in our favor. citation Don McCullin © 2015 Kwiple.com
