Vietnam: Radio First Termer – Historical NPR 1987 Documentary Found, page 1

This is a small segment from the award winning 1987 documentary by National Public Radio that Bill Lichtenstein created. Bill so loved the name of Dave Rabbit’s Saigon Show, that he named the documentary after it. Although the entire documentary covers all aspects of the powerful effect of radio in Vietnam and how, in large part, it changed the course of the war, this short segment deals with the time when Anti-War sentiment was gaining tremendous momentum, not only in the United States, but in the very ranks of the soldiers who were fighting and dieing in Vietnam itself. It also shows the tremendous effort of the Government to misdirect and cover up what was really happening in Vietnam.
