Abstract
Women war correspondents have overcome gender bias to be able to perform the same work as men in their field. This thesis looks at the history of women war correspondents starting with Margaret Bourke-White during World War II through Christine Amanpour in the 2003 Iraqi War. Through tension with the military over censure and editors for rights to work, these women's work has withstood scrutiny over the years.
