By National Defense University Joint Forces Staff College

Although media and information have always influenced international and national security, the impact of information has become a dominantfactor in the modern security arena. Today's Joint Force enjoys both a positive narrative and good media relations, and it is critical that the JointForce maintains and bolsters these positive conditions. Despite this, current trends across all levels of Joint Professional Military Education(JPME) reflect a system that does not sufficiently focus, prioritize, or address sustaining the ability to deliver a timely, accurate, and tronsparentnarrative through cooperative relationships with the media. Because of these shortcomings, military leaders must holistically reexamine the JPMEgoals and exploit current opportunities in order to provide military leaders career-spanning education focused towards sustaining the military'snarrative through positive military-media relations.
