Almost all of the causes that impacted antiwar efforts were impacted by TV. TV broadcasts gave everyone information and visuals on the Vietnam War. Other protests taking place across the world in places like London and mostly the US were very impactful on antiwar efforts. Some of the most impactful protests were the Vietnam Vets Against War march on the US capital and Kent State Protests. Each of these was a powerful demonstration on how the US should leave Vietnam. Lives and medals earned by risking your life in Vietnam were lost protesting in the US to prove the US needed to leave.
