On the other hand, the uprising of 1943 was barely known of at the time, and not in the newspapers and magazines at all.

But to be fair, the closest Allied troops to Warsaw were hundreds of miles away in 1943, it was much tougher to get detailed information on what exactly was happening then. Remember most didn't know about the concentration camps until the camps were actually liberated.

Right, sir, and now we have the situation where the 1943 uprising is better known than the one of 1944 (mostly because of the best-selling book by John Hersey, "The Wall," published circa 1950).....which is the opposite of the situation back in 1943, 1944.
