"During World War II newspapermen found many of their assignments centered on the 'fighting fronts' of the various campaigns. Among this group was Ernie Pyle, who became especially well-known, closely followed, and warmly admired for his accounts of army life. Through his graphic reporting Pyle endeared himself to civilians at home whose relatives and friends were at these outposts, and to military personnel abroad who felt that Pyle was telling their story and was writing for them, as they could not, their letters home. One of these soldiers, this writer, became interested in the writings of Pyle, while serving in the Asiatic-Pacific Theater during World War II. In fact, the writer was a member of the 77th Infantry Division, which Ernie Pyle was visiting when he was killed. Because of this interest the writer, in his search for a topic for a Master's paper that would foster bibliographic competency, thought worthwhile a consideration of the life and works of Ernie Pyle. Such a study was believed to be of possible value to librarians and students as well as a practical exercise in bibliography and library research for a prospective librarian"--Introduction. / Carbon copy of typescript. / "February, 1957." / "Submitted to the Graduate Council of Florida State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science." / Advisor: Ruth H.

In April 1915 a journalist named Malcolm Ross was appointed New Zealand’s official war correspondent to cover the actions of the country’s troops wherever they might be fighting during World War I. Few today appear to have heard of this man so the task of this research was to discover who he was, why he was chosen and how effective he was as a correspondent. The fact he had not been remembered hinted at two possibilities; the first was that as little attention has been given to New Zealand’s media history so he had become one of the forgotten and just awaited some eager historian to rediscover him or, secondly, he had been forgotten because he had not left a lasting legacy or tradition worthy of remembrance. It was a conundrum waiting to be solved and that was the purpose of the research. What was uncovered was a man, born of Scottish working class parents who by 52, when he was selected as official war correspondent, had reached what appeared to be the pinnacle of his career. He was successful, both financially and socially. He had been an exceptional mountaineer and sportsman. His journalism and photographic skills had made him one of the leading journalists of his day. Few were surprised when he was appointed as the country’s first official war correspondent. It is the contention of this thesis that from the time of his appointment, Ross’s reputation and status eroded to the extent that his final years after the war appeared to have been spent in relative obscurity. The reason for this will be explored and largely hinges on the almost overwhelming criticism Ross received for his efforts as war correspondent. A major part of the research was devoted to determining whether this criticism was fair and whether Ross warranted elevation into the ranks of the undeserved forgotten of our country’s media heroes.
