It gave them information about what was going on around them. And it helped them to know what the new was. They used tv as a main source to get news.

Influence on television and free press circled around the first amendment. Which was freedom of press, speech, religion, etc.

Freedom of press helped the civil rights movement to bring good news in print. On how in certain states, countries were allowing slaves to be free and how there civil rights were being effected.

TV helped the Vietnam war by giving informing people on the progressing of the war from the news channels and direct communication from the president.
