Newspaper articles about the Anglo-Zulu War, which took place in 1879, varied depending on the publication and country of origin. British newspapers generally supported the British Empire's involvement in the conflict and portrayed the Zulu people as savage and uncivilized. The British press often praised British military leaders, such as Lord Chelmsford, and criticized any setbacks they encountered during the war. Zulu newspapers, such as Ilanga Lase Natal, reported on the war from a Zulu perspective and emphasized the bravery and tactics of the Zulu warriors.
