I wrote a paper on acceptance of casualties and how it has changed in America from WWII to now. It basically boils down to a lack of censorship and our instinctual reactions to seeing such a small number of personalized passings.
I think it changed during Vietnam, when the war was "televised" for the first time. People were outraged at what they saw. Unfortunately now, it's become something which we've become desensitized to.
Yes, you have it. The TV made the violence much more personalized; thus, it was much worse.. We aren't that desensitized to it now, though. Look at all the protests against the War and Bush's pathetic approval rating as a result of it.
