Explanation

The Vietnam War was an armed conflict that took place in Vietnam in the mid-20th century, after the colonialist division in which the country was divided into two parts, in the north, a socialist regime backed by China and Russia; and in the south, a democratic republic with the support of the United States. One of the factors that allowed the loss of the United States were the images that were broadcast on American television of the indiscriminate attacks, which caused rejection in American society for the cruelty of these attacks that affected innocent people such as women, the elderly and children. Likewise, in the stories and images of young members of the United States Army who suffered multiple difficulties when fighting the 'Vietcong'. This cruelty caused American society to rise against the government to end that war that affected many Americans and Vietnamese, demanding that the troops withdraw from there, which was progressively done until the United States completely withdrew. So, the correct answer is D. Americans had a clearer understanding of the horrors of war because of the images on their screens.
