Appendix K
Media Considerations
This appendix provides an overview of the interaction between the media and the
military during a disaster or other serious incident. It emphasizes interagency
coordination, coordination with the media, and general considerations for
commanders and Soldiers when dealing with the domestic media.
K-1. Modern news reporting provides valuable information to citizens before, during, and after a civil
disaster or other civil support event. The news media are a key, independent asset that can assist or impede
civil support. Army leadership and public affairs planners, in coordination with the lead federal authority,
coordinate closely with the news media and help them obtain information to inform the public accurately
and rapidly. Military public affairs activities support the lead federal and state agencies and conform to their
guidance. Civil support by the military is secondary to the overall task of the supported government leader.
Therefore public affairs officers establish and maintain close contact with the information director
supporting the federal and state coordinating officers.
INTERAGENCY COORDINATION
K-2. News media organizations collect and report information from virtually any location. Unlike
journalists reporting on combat operations, local and national media representatives report freely on civil
support activities. Interagency coordination of public affairs information by the lead civil authority ensures
accurate information is communicated to the news media. Civil and Army leadership, public affairs officers,
and Soldiers must understand the primary mission and end state and how this information is conveyed to the
media. Every organization and individual working for the government, including the Army, should
coordinate messages to ensure that they are accurate and confined to their sphere of responsibility when
dealing with the media.
K-3. Within civil support operations, Army leadership and public affairs officers (PAOs) operate in an
interagency environment with emphasis on unity of effort. The lead civil authority establishes guidance for
release of public affairs information. This follows the guidelines within Emergency Support Function #15
for public affairs. Generally a local and federal joint information center is established by to provide accurate
and timely information. The joint information centers are usually collocated with the state or local
emergency operations center. Army PAOs work in concert with the joint information centers.
K-4. To the public, a Soldier in a camouflage uniform is in the Army; most citizens do not understand the
differences between the National Guard and Regular Army in domestic situations. Therefore, Regular Army
and state National Guard PAOs coordinate closely with one another. They discuss common ground and
differences before speaking to the news media. While working together, regular Army and National Guard
PAOs ensure compliance with the doctrine and procedures contained within NIMS and the NRF.
COORDINATION WITH THE NEWS MEDIA
K-5. Most news media organizations are willing to work with the Army to convey vital information to the
public. Soldiers should understand how the media function and be prepared to help news media
organizations obtain accurate information on military DSCA to inform the public. Experience garnered in
combat dealing with the media provides useful lessons, but may need review as part of an ongoing DSCA
operation. A first rule of thumb is to assume that the domestic media will ―get the story‖ sooner rather than
later, so they might as well have the whole story initially. The second rule of thumb is to ―stick to your lane‖
4 June 2010
FM-3-28 (Signature Draft—Not for Implementation)
1
Media Considerations
and discuss only those things for which the unit is responsible and has experienced. Avoid speculation or
opinion, and always refer the media to the supported civilian agency responsible for public information.
K-6. Members of the media will be present in large numbers during the initial stages of any disaster or
civil disturbance. Depending on the situation, Army leaders assist members of the media to the extent they
can, without impeding higher priority work. For example, the Army may provide shower facilities, a cup of
coffee, a place to park, or other essential needs for media personnel. Other needs include latrines, meals,
power generation, lighting, sleeping facilities, office areas with phone and internet access, access to plans
and operations centers (when security is not jeopardized), and involvement in certain planning events.
Before providing the media with any support not readily available to citizens and relief workers,
commanders obtain clearance from their controlling headquarters. If media control procedures require
accreditation in order to work in the area, local commanders should assist members of the media with
getting that accreditation from the issuing authority, normally the local disaster coordination center.
PROVIDING APPROPRIATE INFORMATION
K-7. Different media outlets, such as television, radio, internet, newspapers and magazines, have varying
information requirements. Media information and packaging requirements are discussed below, to enable
Soldiers to help the media get accurate information to the public on time.
K-8. Television and commercial radio are the two media systems used the most by the general public for
dissemination of domestic disaster information. People often react to warning sirens with disbelief until
confirmation through radio or television is obtained. Television and radio usually cover the same types of
information. Packaging methods are different. For example, the television medium prefers visuals; and a
telephone conversation is not an adequate substitute. Television is predisposed to a headline approach that
emphasizes succinct, easily remembered twenty-to-thirty-second statements. Radio reaches audiences
almost anywhere and tends to broadcast information almost as soon as received. Radio reporters generally
limit reports to a short duration and are selective in detail for civil disasters or other significant events.
These media are essential for successful dissemination of high priority information to the public.
K-9. Generally, print news does not have the same time constraint experienced by radio and television.
Therefore it allows for more background and in-depth material. Print media reports include analysis and
commentary, and stories may build day-after-day as the disaster response progresses. Print news editors
want depth and graphics. With the use of the internet to distribute information and stories, many newspapers
are now much like television and radio in capability. The internet enables rapid dissemination of real time
domestic disaster information worldwide. The Web is also used to collect information about an incident for
later reference. In general, information packaging for the internet is a combination of the material used by
television, radio, newspapers, and magazines. During disaster support missions, Soldiers remain aware that
information they send with cell phone, email, or internet links may not remain private. It may be intercepted
or shared beyond the intended recipient.
K-10. Local news organizations are interested in all phases of the actual disaster since they may have long-
range, home-town concerns. They attempt to provide specific information to area residents to help them
face the disaster: warning information, evacuation advice, where help is available, and how long utilities are
expected to be out of service. National news media organizations are more concerned with the overall
picture, such as the scope of the impact, the number of dead and injured, and the activities of federal
response organizations. National news media concern with long-term recovery from the disaster is unlikely.
Almost all reporters present at a disaster, regardless of their news medium, share information with one
another. Therefore, the Army must coordinate with the primary agency to give accurate and consistent
information.
REFERRING QUESTIONS TO THE JOINT INFORMATION CENTER
K-11. Soldiers should anticipate a mixture ranging from very credible reporting by experienced teams (e.g.
the Weather Channel) through ―niche‖ outlets focused on the outlandish. Ideally, every Soldier understands
the media guidance provided by the joint information center. However, as the operation continues around
the clock, Soldiers on the street may not receive timely guidance. Therefore leaders at each level should
References-2-
FM 3-28 (Signature Draft—Not for Implementation)
4 June 2010
Media Considerations
remind their subordinates to limit their discussion to their personal experiences. ―What did you see? Were
you scared? How did you feel after you rescued the animals?‖ Leaders should also anticipate that media
members will ask questions that Soldiers should always defer to the controlling civil authorities. Common
examples include—
z
Casualty Information. How many were killed or injured? Of those injured, how serious is their
condition? How many escaped? How was escape hindered? Were any of the victims prominent
persons? Where were they taken? What was the disposition of the dead?
z
Property Damage. What is the estimated value of property loss? What kinds of structures are
involved? Did the damage include any particularly important property (e.g., historical buildings,
art treasures, homes of prominent figures)? Is other property threatened? What measures are
being undertaken to protect property? Is the damage covered by insurance? Has this area been
damaged by disasters before?
z
Response and Relief Activities. Who discovered the emergency? Who summoned the alarm?
How quickly were response units on the scene? What agencies responded? How many are
engaged in the response? What acts of heroism occurred? How was the emergency kept from
spreading? How are the displaced and homeless being cared for?
z
Other characteristics of the Crisis. Did you hear about any blasts or explosions? Do you think
this was terrorism? Collapse of structures? Crimes or violence? Attempts at escape or self
rescue? What was the extent of the disaster? The duration? Number of spectators? Crowd
problems? Were there other unusual happenings? What accompanying accidents have occurred?
What were the resulting effects (such as anxiety, stress) on the families and survivors?
z
Causes of the Disaster. Were there any previous indications of danger? Could the disaster have
been prevented? How? (Questions about blame are more likely to surface in technological
disasters such as nuclear or other hazardous materials accidents). Is there a coroner's inquest?
Lawsuits? Insurance company actions? Criminal investigation?
K-12. In addition to inappropriate questions, Soldiers should be prepared to deal with inappropriate
behavior. Most members of the media are experienced professionals and very good at their jobs.
Occasionally the media oversteps its limits and Soldiers should be prepared to deal professionally with the
situation before it becomes a major news story in itself. Considerations include—
z
Police or National Guard forces should intercede to control members of the media whenever
their presence interferes with mission accomplishment. If time permits, coordinate with the
incident commander for assistance. If external assistance is not available, the unit leaders should
confer with the media and ask them to modify their activity to allow the Soldiers to complete
their mission. Unless life or limb is at risk, avoid using any level of force.
z
Never attempt to seize cameras or other media equipment. That is a task for civilian law
enforcement.
z
Remember that the rights of citizens outweigh the rights of the press. Whenever the activities of
the press upset citizens, be prepared to offer assistance to all parties. Civilians view members of
the military as neutral parties and the respect that media and citizens give them can diffuse
emotional situations.
z
In a major disaster, the press is just as exhausted as Soldiers. Remind Soldiers that the media are
also professionals with an important job and that they will respect fellow professionals. Be
courteous, and offer hospitality if possible. Keep in mind that the American media has an
underlying affection for Soldiers and Marines.
BASIC CONSIDERATIONS FOR IMPROVING NEWS COVERAGE
K-13. The news media are more effective when their personnel understand the nature of the disaster and
what information may be communicated to the public. Army PAOs work with the media to help them
understand what information the public requires during civil disasters. For example, newscasters may be
encouraged not to withhold news information, warnings, and instructions to the public for fear of causing
panic. Evidence indicates the public is capable of handling facts.

Media Considerations
z
The news media may know that a disaster warning is less likely to be taken seriously if it is
followed by resumption of normal programming.
z
Newscasters may know the importance of announcing the areas not affected by the disaster. The
effect of this information may be a reduction of the number of calls by persons who believe they
have loved ones in the impact zone.
z
Reporters should know that acquisition of precise information and accurate figures on deaths,
injuries, and damage in the initial aftermath of a disaster is unrealistic.
z
Previously inaccurate information that was conveyed to the public is corrected as soon as
possible.
BASIC MEDIA GUIDELINES FOR SOLDIERS
K-14. Some basic guidelines for media contact include—
z
Commanders or senior staff should be ready for interviews. These interviews serve as
opportunities to ensure the public receives accurate, timely, and useful information concerning
the Army’s response to the situation.
z
Use simple, concise language free of military jargon and acronyms.
z
Soldiers doing their duty always make a good impression. When questioned, try to ignore the
cameras and talk directly to the reporter. They remove sunglasses and headgear if appropriate.
They use appropriate posture and gestures.
z
Soldiers should pause and think before answering a question. They answer questions accurately,
but not necessarily instantly. Answer one question at a time.
z
If a question seems unclear, a Soldier asks the reporter to rephrase it.
z
Assume everything is on the record.
z
Soldiers should be friendly but businesslike. The interviewer chooses the questions; the Solder
chooses the answers.
z
Soldiers speak about what they know. If he or she doesn’t know the answer, the Soldier’s reply
is, ―I don’t know.‖ When possible, Soldiers direct a reporter to the most appropriate individual
with the required knowledge.
z
It is never appropriate to lie to the media.
z
A Soldier does not divulge or confirm classified information even when a reporter may have
knowledge of such information.
MEDIA CARDS
K-15. Media cards include the basic information Soldiers are required to know for dealing with news media
organizations. The PAO is responsible for their development. Items to include in a media card are—
z
The appropriate person to contact and how to contact him or her if a reporter arrives in the unit’s
area.
z
Responsibilities of a media escort.
z
What information can and cannot be discussed.
z
When to allow a media interview.
z
How to treat reporters.
z
How to conduct an interview.
z
The best techniques to use in telling the correct information.
