The My Lai massacre shocked US public opinion. It was the clearest evidence that the war was going wrong.
Waugh and Wright EDEXCEL 2010
When the American public first heard of the My Lai Massacre in November 1969, they were outraged. As the details of the My Lai Massacre became known, many people questioned the role of U.S. soldiers in the Vietnam War.
A poll of Americans in one town in the USA showed that 31% of the people were against the war in 1967. By 1969, 49% of people were against it.
