Since the British were repelling an invasion from a dictatorship nobody particularly liked, there was little controversial about the Falklands war.

I remember being glued to my TV watching CNN's reports from British TV. So the Falklands war was perhaps the first one covered by 24x7 media, and I think we can say today's media wouldn't have covered it any differently.
